Prosecutor stabbed in Jambi

Head of Jambi Prosecutors'€™ Office economic section Novan Siregar was found stabbed to death in Jambi on Saturday.


Comr. Sunhot P. Silalahi from the Jambi City Police confirmed that the cause of death was the stab wounds. He said the police knew the identities of the suspected murders, two siblings, and had deployed a team to purse them.

"They fled the scene after committing the crime," he said.

Eye witnesses said the incident occurred around 9 a.m. but no one intervened as the alleged perpetrators were wielding sharp weapons, Sunhot said.

The police also found evidences that would corroborate rumors that debt problems were behind the fatal stabbing.

Novan'€™s body will be buried in Medan.
