SAMARINDA, East Kalimantan: Police rangers have seized 263
logs in Melak in the Kutai hinterland believed to have been
felled illegally.

The head of the Forestry Office of the Mahakam Ulu Regency
Office, Rudjito, said he believed that the loggers may have
felled much more than the actual amount seized.

He said police intercepted the boat which was towing the logs.
Several people on the vessel are now being questioned. (emb)
