Students go after former governor

PEKANBARU, Riau: A group of students called on the Riau
administration on Wednesday to investigate the wealth of former
governor H. Soeripto, Antara reported.

The students from the State Islamic Institute (IAIN) said any
portion of Soeripto's wealth that resulted from embezzlement
should be returned to the people.

The students, who were met by Governor Saleh Djasit at his
office, demanded that the administration investigate any property
belonging to former president Soeharto and his family in the
province.

Saleh said the administration had already addressed the
question of corruption, collusion and nepotism and that any
investigation would be conducted by provincial police and the
attorney offices. (emb)
