Police anticipate Adrian's next move

BANDUNG: National Police Chief Gen. Da'i Bachtiar indicated on
Monday there was a possibility that Adrian Wowuruntu, a key
suspect in the Rp 1.7 trillion (US$185 billion) BNI scandal,
might file an immigration appeal to evade arrest by the
Indonesian police.

Da'i said it would take the police longer to capture Adrian if
he were to take such an action.

Adrian was put on the wanted list on Oct. 1, 2004 after police
failed to locate him in Kotamubagu, North Sulawesi, where he had
said he was undergoing medical treatment.

The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation said Adrian was
detected in Los Angeles, California.

To capture Adrian, Indonesian police have asked Interpol to
deal with the FBI as Indonesia and the U.S. do not have an
extradition agreement. -- JP
