Robbers attack fish pond owners

BOGOR: Two brothers were seriously injured after catching
three men attempting to steal fish from their commercial pond in
Curugbitung village, Nanggung district, Bogor regency early
Thursday morning.

Ahmad, 50, and his brother Otib, were checking the pond, about
one kilometer from Ahmad's house. As they discussed their plan to
harvest the fish, they saw a suspicious man.

Despite the brothers yelling "thief", the man, who was
accompanied by two other people, attacked them.

Ahmad suffered stab wounds to his head, back and fingers of
both hands, while Otib was stabbed in the back and on his left
hand.

The three attackers ran away empty handed.

The brothers were later taken to the Indonesian Red Cross
(PMI) hospital by other villagers.--JP
