PRD activists detained

SEMARANG: Seven members of the outlawed Democratic People's
Party (PRD) were arrested by police in Ungaran on Thursday while
holding a clandestine meeting.

Central Java Police Chief Maj. Gen. Harimas said that pending
the outcome of the investigation, some of the activists might be
sent to Jakarta for further questioning.

He said two of them -- I Gusti Agung Anom Astika and Wilson --
were believed to be core members of the PRD's executive board and
had long been on the authorities' wanted list.

The others -- Wirayanti, Aan Rusdianto, Hari Sutanto, Nurleili
Huda and Stevanus -- were members of student and labor
organizations under the PRD. (har)
