Death toll rises in Aceh conflict
|
At least seven Indonesian soldiers have been killed in the troubled province of Aceh in some of the fiercest fighting since a military offensive began last month. The latest clashes started late on Monday in Bireun district and lasted until the early hours of Tuesday morning, said military spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Firdaus Komarno. Seven soldiers were also injured during the fighting.
An Indonesian Government delegation is due in Sweden later on Tuesday to present what it said was new evidence of terrorist activities by Swedish-based Gam members. Officials in Stockholm have said that exiled Gam leaders living in their country are Swedish citizens who have broken no laws, so no action can be taken against them. But the Indonesian delegation - the third to make representations to Stockholm - has said it would provide evidence that the exiles have broken international law and should be prosecuted in Sweden.
