Three students still missing

BOGOR (JP): Six out of nine Djuanda University students who were reported missing after police raided their campus on May 9 returned last week, a media report said Saturday.

The university's crisis center said it was looking into the whereabouts of the remaining three, but those who had reappeared were remaining tight-lipped and would not talk about their experiences, Antara reported.

The three students still missing are Benyamin S, Hendra Sukma A and Eti Suharyati, the center's spokesman M. Amin Soebianto said.

The center reported the students' disappearance to the National Commission on Human Rights on May 23. The commission is scheduled to visit the campus tomorrow.
