JAKARTA (JP): Police are still hunting a Tanjung Priok dock worker believed to have shot dead a friend.

Hendra was shot twice in the stomach after a heated quarrel with the shooter on Oct. 28. Hendra died at the Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital on Thursday.

Police have assumed that the shooter and the victim had been involved in a fierce argument over money. (10)
