Robbery suspect surrenders

SURABAYA: A fourth suspect in the Rp 1.2 billion ($520
million) heist at a local sub-branch of Bank Panin has turned
himself in to the police after his mother made an appeal on
newspapers and television, Antara reported.

The suspect, an employee of the bank identified by his
initials Sup, called his mother in Surabaya and told her that
police could pick him up at a location in Mojokerto.

Police investigators said that when Sup was asked why he took
part in the robbery, he responded that he hated his bosses.

Police believe five men, including two employees of the bank,
were involved in the robbery during the Idul Fitri holiday. They
have already arrested four and are still hunting for the fifth.
