Thu, 26 Jan 1995

SURABAYA: Brig. Gen. Roesman Hadi was inducted yesterday as the new chief of the East Java police, taking charge of the province that has the third-highest crime rate in Indonesia.

Roesman, formerly chief of the North Sumatra Police, replaced Maj. Gen. Emon Rivai Arganata, who will move back to the National Police headquarters in Jakarta pending his next assignment.

Roesman is no stranger to the area, having previously served as deputy police chief of East Java before his North Sumatra assignment. (emb)
