Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Jan 6 (ANTARA) - Yogyakarta Police will continue to prioritize the prevention and handling of thuggery and other conventional crimes in 2009, including possible security disturbances in this year's general election campaigns.
"The prevention and handling of hooliganism and other conventional crimes, including possible security disturbances during the general election campaigns, remain in the Yogyakarta Police's list of priorities this year," Yogyakarta Police spokesman Commissioner Sujanto said here on Tuesday.
According to him, operations against thugs started late last year and therefore the prevention and handling of thuggery this year will remain on the local police's list of priorities.
