ATAMBUA, E. Nusa Tenggara: The Indonesian Police in East Nusa
Tenggara province and the United Nations Civilian Police (Civpol)
in East Timor discussed Monday about the illegal border crossing
of East Timorese soldier, Sgt. Germano Tete Pareira, last Nov.
30.

The meeting was held in Mota'Ain, Tasifeto Timur subdistrict,
Belu district on Monday, Belu police chief Adj. Sr. Comr. Agus
Nugroho said.

The idea came from Civpol chief Comr. Peter Millerm, who
wanted to know clearly the circumstances of the illegal border
crossing, he said.

Germano was arrested last Dec. 2 by the people and Indonesian
troops in Toro village in Atambua, some 30 kilometers from the
border shared by East Timor and East Nusa Tenggara, after he
managed to enter the Silawan border point on Nov 30. -- Antara
