More police charged in brawl case

YOGYAKARTA: The provincial police named on Tuesday two other
policemen as suspects in the death of Aan Yulianto who died in
the hospital after having been "interrogated" in relation to a
brawl early this month.

Spokesman for the Yogyakarta police office Adj. Sr. Comr.
Sudarsono said the new suspects are Joko Taruno and Adhofir.

"I need to assert that the police are very serious about this
the case. We guarantee that any of our personnel proven guilty
will be punished," he said here on Tuesday.

The police also named the other two policemen, including
Soleh, as suspects in the same case.

Aan was one of the five witnesses questioned for his alleged
involvement in a melee that took place on Jl. Magelang. The clash
left police Mobile Brigade member Totok Sugiarto wounded after
being stabbed by an unidentified assailant.

Doctors said Aan died after incurring serious injuries to his
lungs and liver. Several of his ribs were also broken.

Aan's relatives have filed a complaint with the police over
the death. --JP
