Regency court for Tangerang sought
TANGERANG: Tangerang Government Watch director Tony Wismantoro suggested on Saturday that Tangerang regency get its own prosecutor's office and court.
"This is also in line with the separation of the Tangerang City Police into regency and municipal police offices," he told The Jakarta Post on Saturday.
Many residents of Tangerang regency have complained of the long distances they have to travel to reach the prosecutor's office and the court, both located in Tangerang municipality, Tony said.
The National Police will build the regency police headquarters in Tigaraksa, on a plot of land provided by Tangerang Regent Ismet Iskandar.
The regency police office will oversee 26 districts, while the municipal police will serve the capital of Tangerang and 13 districts. -- JP
