Two men killed in Aceh revenge attack

BANDA ACEH: Two suspected rebels were killed in on Thursday,
in what was thought to be a revenge-killing after a police
captain was killed by separatists in Lhokseumawe on Wednesday.

Lt. Col. Supartodi, chief of the Pidie Military Subdistrict,
said on Friday that the men were shot dead in an attack on the
Tiro Village where those who killed Adj. Brig. Syarifuddin in
Lhokseumawe, allegedly came from.

An FN-46 gun and 34 bullets were also taken from the two
bodies who were identified as Abdul Karim, 22, and Basri
Hasballah 22, Supartodi said. The two bodies were handed over to
their relatives for funerals.

Abu Razak, an executive of the Free Aceh Movement in Pidie,
confirmed the two rebels' killing. --JP
