Students stage rally at campus

BOGOR (JP): Dozens of Juanda University students staged a
rally at their campus on Thursday to demand Bogor police end
their investigation of students suspected of killing an
intelligence officer during a clash between protesters and police
in May.

However they stopped their action immediately after being
assured by their rector, Abdi Soetisna, that police have given a
verbal assurance that the cases will be dropped. He also said
that the suspects -- T.B. Ade, Emon Mulyadi and Syaefulloh --
have had their full rights restored. All spent several weeks in
police custody after the ill-fated protest in May.

Police accused the students of killing Second Lt. Dadang
Rusmana during a mob attack. The dead officer was the chief of
the Bogor police detectives unit.

Police believed the detective died of wounds sustained during
the mobbing, but Yuli Budiningsih, a PMI hospital forensics
expert who carried out a postmortem examination on the victim,
insisted Dadang died of a heart attack. (24/emf)
