"This is not a matter of information but of law. If the case is true, it must be investigated thoroughly," he said here yesterday. The reported sexual harassment came to light after members of the East Timorese Prointegration Front (UNIF) informed General Chairman of Golkar Party Akbar Tanjung about the case during a dialog in Dili, capital of East Timor, on Monday evening. They said some of the UNAMET officers had raped the East Timorese girls. On Wednesday, a Jakarta daily carried news stories on the rape. Yunus urged UNAMET to follow up on the report. "If UNAMET does nothing about it, what is going to happen? How does the UNAMET leadership respond to the protests?" he said. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Didistribusikan tgl. 26 Aug 1999 jam 08:19:04 GMT+1 oleh: Indonesia Daily News Online <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.Indo-News.com/ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
