W. Java Council speaker dies

BANDUNG: The speaker of the West Java provincial council, Idin
Rafioedin, died of a heart attack on Tuesday night.

He was 51.

His death is particularly untimely for the council which is in
the midst of conducting a corruption investigation against the
province's governor R. Nuriana.

Friends of the deceased expressed shock at the death of Idin,
who was known for having a healthy lifestyle, which included
regular participation in sports. Idin did not have a history of
heart disease.

Idin, who was elected chairman of the provincial assembly in
October last year, was buried at Sirnaraga public cemetery on
Wednesday afternoon. (25)
