Korean citizen robbed

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta

South Korean Nam Ho In, 40, was found lying unconscious and
injured near a vacant house in Kampung Curug, Sawangan, Depok,
early on Saturday.

According to information from the man's maid, police believe
that Nam was robbed while taking a taxi to his home in Cempaka
Putih, East Jakarta.

Jakarta Police spokesman Sr. Comr. I Ketut Untung Yoga Ana
said the police had found indications that the victim, who works
for Asiana Airlines, was robbed by at least three people.

The robbers made off with Nam's cellular phone, watch and at
least Rp 9.5 million in cash.

"We are still trying to gather information and identify the
taxi the victim was in," the police spokesman told The Jakarta
Post.

He said that as with other robberies inside cabs, the taxi
driver could have been involved in the crime.

The victim is being treated at MMC Hospital in Kuningan, South
Jakarta, for a broken leg and head wounds. He has yet to regain
consciousness.

This is the 15th known robbery inside a taxi this year, with
all but one of the cases remaining unsolved.

Police said they had trouble identifying the perpetrators
because of a lack of clues.
