TANGERANG (JP): The Tangerang Prosecutor's Office has summoned
a number of agricultural cooperative organizers for a second
session of questioning in connection with an alleged
mismanagement in the disbursement of Rp 14 billion (US$1.41
million) in loans to farmers.

The office's intelligence unit chief, Nandi Warsidi, said on
Friday the questioning was scheduled to begin next week and was
conducted by a special team set up to investigate the case.

Nandi said the team found in its preliminary investigation
that some cooperatives had channeled the loan into fictitious
projects.

An executive of a cooperative in Kali Asin subdistrict,
identified as Surai, has been named a suspect in the case. Nandi,
however, was not informed as to when the dossier of the suspect
would reach the district court. (41)
