Arientha Primanita, Jakarta – Contrary to earlier media reports on Monday, a Bekasi police official says that they have yet to name suspects for the attack on members of a Protestant church in Ciketing on Sunday.

Sr. Comr. Imam Sugiarto, Bekasi district police chief, said that the police are still gathering information on the stabbing incident.

"We have questioned 10 witnesses who were at the location," Imam told the Jakarta Globe. "We are focusing on the investigation but we have not yet named anyone as a suspect."

When asked about the perpetrators' identities and the police sketches being made, Imam declined to comment, saying that the investigation is proceeding.

Earlier, Comr. Ade Ary Syam, Bekasi Police chief of detectives, was quoted by online news portal Detik.com as saying that they had identified the suspect responsible for the stabbing.

Imam said that the police had sent a letter urging the congregation not to conduct their service in Ciketing, Bekasi, on Sunday. "The area is prone to risk because the neighborhood has been protesting their activities," he said.

The Bekasi administration provided the congregation with an alternative place to worship, a vacant building owned by the administration, for their use until they are able to obtain a permit for their church.

Imam said that it was unfortunate that the congregation did not follow the government's suggestion of using the vacant building. He added that the police have always protected the field where the worshipers gathered, assigning up to 500 policemen each week.

"Following the stabbing, security procedures will be reviewed," he said. "Maybe we will assign our personnel along the entire route and not only at the location," he added.
