Kendari police seize illegal logs

KENDARI, Southeast: Kendari police have seized six cubic meters of logs during an operation code-named Wanalaga launched at the Wawonii and Waworete districts.

Kendari police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Sumaryoto confirmed the seizure on Wednesday, saying that the logs did not have proper documentation.

The owner of the logs was identified only as Mar.

"Mar admitted to possessing the logs. We did not arrest him as he promised to respond to a police summons at any time for further legal processing," Sumaryoto said, adding that the logs had been found by his subordinates on the beach at Wawonii.

The Wanalaga operation will end on Nov. 10. --Antara
