Probe into ecstasy cop finished

JAKARTA: City Police narcotics division chief Adj. Sr. Comr.
Anjan P. Putra said on Wednesday that the investigation of a
police officer, who was allegedly in possession of 900 ecstasy
pills, had been completed last week.

"The case of Comr. Puja Laksana is now in the hands of the
West Jakarta prosecutors' office, which is still preparing the
indictment," he said as quoted by Tempointeraktif.

Puja is a member of the National Police antigraft unit.

His lawyer, Noni T. Purwaningsih, admitted the prosecutors had
received the case, but that the dossier was returned to the
police investigators for corrections.

Puja was arrested on Jan. 11 in the parking lot of the Ranch
Market in Kebon Jeruk, West Jakarta, reportedly about to deliver
the illegal drugs to a customer. The police later arrested Lina
Harapan who is suspected to be a drug supplier. Both are now
being held at the City Police detention facility. -- JP
