Mangrove case files returned, again

JAKARTA: The Jakarta Prosecutor's Office returned to the
police for the third time on Monday the files on three suspects
accused of uprooting 240 mangrove trees in the Angke forest
reserve.

"The prosecutors keep returning the files, saying they need
more information, but we still don't know exactly what additional
information they require," Jakarta Police investigator Comr. Tato
said on Monday.

He added that his subordinates were discussing the problem
with prosecutors.

The police first submitted the files on suspects Francis
Moniaga of the PT Rainbow Cipta Utama advertising firm, Agus
Suseno of the PT Grand Skylindo advertising firm, and Purwadi, an
executive of toll road operator PT Jasa Marga, in June.

The three allegedly were responsible for uprooting the trees
to provide a clear view of outdoor advertisements. -- JP
