Man questioned of wife's murder

JAKARTA (JP): Kemayoran Police detectives questioned a man on
Saturday following the discovery of his wife's body at Gate I of
the Kemayoran Jakarta Fair Ground, Central Jakarta.

Central Jakarta Police chief of detectives Adj. Comr. Yoyol
said the body of the woman, identified as Yelly Sumarow, 35, a
resident of Sunter, North Jakarta, was discovered by security
guards early Saturday morning near an entrance on Jl. Benyamin
Suaeb.

Quoting forensic doctors at Cipto Mangunkusumo General
Hospital, Yoyol said the brown-eyed, long-haired woman was
probably raped, judging from the injuries she sustained.

"Kemayoran Police questioned Yelly's husband, Maxwell, on
Saturday night. He told police that she had seemed depressed
lately," Yoyol told reporters.

"Maxwell said he saw her last at 4 a.m. on Saturday. She had
jumped out of a window of their home in Sunter. He ran after her
but she eluded him in the dark. He never saw her alive after
that." (ylt)
