MLM customers blockade road

MEDAN, North Sumatra: Hundreds of customers from Higam Net multi-level marketing company vented their frustration by blocking a major street here on Thursday.

The group set piles of wood and rubber tires on Jl. Gatot Subroto, causing a heavy traffic jam.

They demanded the return of the money they invested in the company, in what they described as a scam.

Higam Net director Hendrik Suprianto has been put under police protection on his own request, fearing attacks from angry investors. (40/edt)
