Security guard found dead

JAKARTA (JP): A Shangri-La Hotel security guard was found dead
on the hotel's fifth floor after falling from the thirteenth
floor late on Friday.

The hotel's senior manager Wastu Widanto said in a statement
on Saturday that the victim was identified as Heri Indrianto, 25,
a resident of Cilincing subdistrict in North Jakarta.

Wastu said Heri had been guarding the hotel's 13th floor from
7 p.m., but minutes before 12 p.m. another security guard heard
sounds like breaking glass.

After searching all the hotel's floors, the victim was found
on the outer wall of the hotel on the fifth floor.

Central Jakarta Police detectives' chief Comr. Yoyol told
journalists that police were assuming that the hotel security
guard had committed suicide.

"However, the police are investigating the background to the
death," he said.

Heri's brother-in-law Laode, who took custody of the body
after an autopsy was performed at the Cipto Mangunkusumo General
Hospital's morgue, said Heri must have been murdered.

"It's impossible that Heri would have committed suicide as we
know that he had no personal problems at all," he said. (02)
