Man mobbed in revenge attack

BOGOR: A man was mobbed to death by a number of youths in Parung, Bogor on Monday night in what is believed to be a revenge attack.

Parung Police detective chief Second Insp. Nawa told the media that the youths held a grudge against the victim, Suryana, 20. They chased him calling him a thief and then mobbed him to death.

He died from injuries to the head, neck and hands.

"We don't know yet what the cause of conflict was. We're still investigating it," said Nawa.

He said that the police had not yet arrested the suspected murderers. "We're having difficulty identifying the perpetrators as they're not local residents. They come from other villages," he said. --Antara
