Robbery in DPR/MPR complex

JAKARTA (JP): Police are investigating the Tuesday morning
robbery of computers worth hundreds of millions of rupiah from
the House of Representatives/People's Consultative Assembly
(DPR/MPR) complex in Senayan, Central Jakarta.

The robbery reportedly occurred in a hall of the Nusantara V
building, which is usually occupied by members of the Ad Hoc
Committee of the MPR Working Committee.

"Robbers also broke into the Media Center on the second floor
of the Nusantara III building. This center has 20 computers
donated by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). The
robbers failed to enter that hall," Antara said quoting a police
report.

The robbers reportedly damaged the alarm system and scratched
TV monitors.

Contacted separately by The Jakarta Post, Central Jakarta
Police chief of detectives Capt. Hendra Suhartiyono said he was
unaware of the robbery.

"There has been no report of this to this point. I have heard
nothing about this," Hendra said late Tuesday evening. (ylt)
