More protests over Bapindo

SEMARANG, Central Java: Students of the Walisongo State Institute of Islamic Studies (IAIN) staged a protest on Thursday demanding the trial of three former ministers in connection with the huge fraud at Bank Pembangunan Indonesia (Bapindo).

They said Sudomo, Sumarlin and Nasrudin Sumintapura should be punished for their roles in the issuance of huge bank credits to businessman Eddy Tansil.

They pointed out that testimony by several people at the current Bapindo trials implicated the three ministers.

"The tree are obviously prime suspects in the crime," said protester Hasan Aoni Aziz. (wah)
