Police officers dismissed

PALU, Central Sulawesi: Central Sulawesi Police Headquarters has dismissed five officers for a variety of reasons, including fathering a child out of wedlock.

"The five officers have been discharged from the corps because they persisted in violating regulations, although we had already warned them many times," police spokesman Adj. Sr. Comr. Agus Sugianto told the media on Thursday.

Some of the officers were also discovered to have more than two wives and be suffering from mental illness.

"In accordance with the reform movement, the National Police will not tolerate officers whose behavior brings disrepute to the corps' image," Agus asserted. --Antara
