No martial law in Maluku: VP
JAKARTA (JP): Vice President Hamzah Haz denied here on Monday that the
government's plan to form a new security command body in Maluku is an attempt to
impose martial law in the conflict-torn province.
According to Hamzah, the new command would be working along with the local civil
emergency government to compliment its infective line of command.
"There should be no more excuses of misunderstanding among the governor, the
Police chief, and the military commander in executing their duties (with the
establishment of the new command)," Hamzah told reporters.
