Rotten meat suspects named

JAKARTA: The Bekasi police has named three suspects involved
in the marketing of rotten meat that was supposed to be dumped at
Bantar Gebang in Bekasi, Jakarta police spokesman Sr. Comr.
Tjiptono said on Monday.

The three suspects from Tanjung Priok Port are HMP Hutasoit,
head of a team in charge of destroying the meat, as well as team
members, Sakti Aji and Wahono.

They would be charged for violating Article 360 of the
Criminal Code for negligence in the supervision of the meat
disposal, said Tjiptono. At present, they were not detained.

The team was in charge of destroying six containers of
illegally imported rotten meat.

Police reports said that only three containers reached the
dump and were greeted with pick-up trucks to carry the meat
elsewhere. The other three reportedly were headed to Cirebon,
West Java.

Last week, Bekasi Police detained five suspects for selling
the rotten meat to some markets. -- JP
