Jakarta, NU Online
Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda said Monday he deplored the arrests and alleged torture of four Indonesian students in Cairo, but made no hint whether Indonesia would ask Egypt to apologize and prosecute the perpetrators.
"We have heard the students were not given their basic rights as suspects while being interrogated," he told reporters after opening a workshop on the Indonesian presidential election at the Sheraton Hotel in Tangerang, Banten.<>
"We want to make sure such an incident does not happen again."
The minister acknowledged, however, that Egypt had been very strict and harsh in implementing its draconian emergency law.
"The political system is different there. The students should be careful...their duty is to study well," he said.
Hassan will depart for Egypt for the Non-Aligned Movement Summit later this month and will raise the issue when meeting with his Egyptian counterpart. (jp/dar)
