JAKARTA (JP): National Police chief Gen. Da'i Bachtiar said on Saturday that the order to arrest Laskar Jihad commander Jafar Umar Thalib was based on legal grounds because the latter had been suspected for quite some time of being involved in theMaluku conflicts, reports said.

Speaking in Surabaya, the capital of East Java, Da'i said that the order to arrest Jafar was not an order from the chief of police.

"The law does not recognize the order of a superior. It only recognizes the order of the law, which means that if investigators think that they have enough evidence to declare a person a suspect, they will do so based on due process of the law," Da'i said as quoted by Antara.

Da'i, accompanied by East Java Police chief Insp. Gen. Sutanto in an event titled "Police are Children's Good Friends", reiterated that based on the analysis and reports on the field, "Jafar Umar Thalib is connected to various things that happened in Ambon (capital of Maluku)".

Da'i further stressed that coordination between allauthorities both in the central and provincial administrations was essential to resolve conflict in Maluku province. (edt)
