AKARTA: East Jakarta Police have detained a number of military officers as suspects in the attack of a Matraman Police station last week.

"They are currently being detained in POM *internal affairs* Cipayung," East Jakarta Police chief Sr. Comr. Hasanuddin told tempointeraktif.com on Saturday.

Hasanuddin, however, did not provide any details about the suspects.

On Sept. 5, dozens of unidentified men mobbed the Matraman Police station on Jl. Matraman Raya, Central Jakarta, hurling stones and flower pots at the office.

The attack lasted for five minutes, shattering windows and wrecking computers and printers in one office and damaging two parked cars and several motorcycles.
