Two 'ojek' drivers killed

JAKARTA (JP): Two ojek (motorcycle taxi) drivers have been found dead, their bodies displaying stab wounds, at Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta.

The Koja police precinct said the bodies of the two men, Mardi, 27, and Paing, 25, were found on Friday night. The police strongly believe, on the basis of the wounds, that the perpetrators stabbed the two men with sickles.

The perpetrators are still at large.

Police remain in the dark about the motive for the killings, but they strongly believe that they were acts of revenge, since neither the victims' money nor their motorcycles were stolen.

The bodies have been taken to Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital for autopsies.(01)
