Police probing delible ink

JAKARTA: The National Police announced on Thursday that they
were investigating public complaints that low-quality ink was
used to mark ballots at many polling stations across the country.

The probe is being carried out by provincial police
departments that received reports that the ink used in the July 5
election was delible, National Police chief of detectives Comr.
Gen. Suyitno Landung Sudjono said.

He said election committees would be questioned over the
cases. The use of delible ink sparked fears that many voters may
have cast their ballots twice on Monday. --JP
