Subdistrict heads go to court

TANGERANG (JP): The incumbent head of Batu Ceper subdistrict
and his predecessor will be tried in the local district court on
charges of illegally selling 12.4 hectares of state land, an
official said yesterday.

Suhaemi of the Tangerang Prosecutor Office said the two men
were identified as Mustaqim, 45, the incumbent head and Mukri,
55, a former head of the subdistrict.

The two were accused of selling land belonging to state-owned
airport operator Perum Angkasa Pura II, he said.

"But the number of defendants involved in the case could
possibly increase," he said.

The two were reportedly detained last month, but Mustaqim was
released on probation. (41/jun)
