Pertamina official's home attacked

KUPANG, East Nusa Tenggara: An unidentified person attacked
the home of a Pertamina (the state oil company) official here
with two Molotov cocktails at dawn on Saturday, but no injuries
were reported.

The homemade bombs were thrown through a window on the left
side of a house belonging to Sutiyono, the director of the
Pertamina domestic distribution office in Kupang, but they failed
to explode.

Sutiyono discovered that his house had been attacked only at
around 9:15 a.m. Police officers were called to investigate.

The head of the Pertamina security unit in Kupang, Imam
Safe'i, said nobody was aware of the attack as heavy rain had
been falling at the time of the attack.

Sutiyono's housekeeper, Agustinus Bataona, said he heard
nothing when the attack took place. "I only became aware of it
when bapak told me," Agustinus said, referring to his employer.

Imam said Sutiyono had received a telephone death threat on
Thursday. -- Antara
