From Times Wire Reports

Prosecutors said they would search former Indonesian President Suharto’s family estate in the hunt for his son, who is on the run from a jail sentence for graft. Atty. Gen. Marzuki Darusman said he believes that Hutomo “Tommy” Mandala Putra was hiding out at his home on the estate in central Jakarta, the capital. “Our first search will focus on Tommy’s official address,” one news report quoted Darusman as saying. It is the most serious attempt to find Hutomo since he disappeared Friday. His lawyers said the wealthy businessman had been threatened with death and sodomy and would not go to jail unless authorities could guarantee his safety.
