W. Jakarta Police handle brawl case

JAKARTA: City police passed on the case of a brawl that killed
two security guards at Stadium Discotheque in Taman Sari, West
Jakarta last Tuesday, to the West Jakarta Police, an officer said
on Saturday.

The precinct head of detectives Adj. Comr. Herry Rudolf Nahak
said the case had been given to him on Friday.

He told Tempointeraktif that he has detained 17 suspects who
are under investigation.

Herry brushed aside the possibility that the brawl last
Tuesday was sparked by business rivalry, claiming that it was a
retaliatory attack following a quarrel on Sunday night between
the security guards and two men, whom the attackers claimed were
their friends.

Outnumbered, three other security guards and a discotheque
employee were also injured in the brawl. -- JP
