Police gear up to secure New Year's

BOGOR: The police will deploy about 3,000 personnel on New
Year's Eve to secure Bogor, Puncak and the Bogor-Cianjur-Sukabumi
road, a police officer said on Tuesday.

West Java Police chief Insp. Gen. Dadang Garnida said
travelers would swarm the road, heading for the resort area of
Puncak and Pelabuhan Ratu beach in Sukabumi.

"Many people will celebrate New Year's Eve in resort areas,
therefore we have to employ extra security at that time."

Bogor Police deputy chief Comr. Rusdi Hartono said he would
also deploy 110 undercover detectives and intelligence officers
"to the areas usually used as venues for parties, such as Gunung
Mas tea plantation". -- JP
