Robbers shoot employee

JAKARTA: A bank customer was shot in the groin by armed
robbers at 11:30 a.m. on Monday after withdrawing Rp 120 million
(US$14,117.65) from the Bank Mandiri branch in Warung Buncit,
Mampang, South Jakarta.

Ahmad Furqon, 36, an employee of surveyor company Imacon
located on Jl. Pejaten Raya, Pasar Minggu, South Jakarta, was
rushed to the Siaga Hospital in South Jakarta.

Unbeknownst to Furqon and his colleague, Yusuf, 35, they had
been tailed by two robbers from the time they had left the bank.
The robbers pretended to park their Yamaha RX King motorcycle
next to Furqon's before one of them attempted to grab the bag out
of his hand.

As Furqon refused to let go of the bag, the robber shot him
twice. One of the shots hit the motorcycle but another hit Furqon
in the groin.

The robbers waved their pistols around to scare passers-by
before making good their escape with the money.

Police discovered two bullet cases at the scene. -- JP
