40 prosecutors for terror cases
AMBON, Maluku: The Maluku Prosecutor's Office has prepared at least 40
prosecutors to deal with various terror-related cases in the province.
Head of the Prosecutor Office's investigative team, Elsi Demas, said on Wednesday
that if 40 prosecutors were not enough to deal with all the cases, more prosecutors
could be assigned from outside the province.
Among the cases to be prosecuted will be the recent attack on a Mobile Brigade unit
post on Lokki island that killed seven people, and a grenade explosion in Batumerah
village, Ambon in which 19 people were injured.
Elsi said many of the case dossiers were still with the police. "The police have
conducted reenactments of the cases and we are preparing teams of prosecutors to
deal with them," he said, adding that five or six prosecutors would be assigned to
each case. -- JP
