Jakarta, July 18 (ANTARA) - The National Police (Polri) Headquarters has set up a bombing information center as a means of communication and information exchange between the police and the public.
Polri Headquarters' public relations division chief Senior Commissioner Ketut Untung Yoga Ana said here on Saturday the public could give information to the police through the center.
He said the center, located at the National Police's criminal investigation department building on Trunojoyo street in South Jakarta, also provides the public with three cellular phone numbers for communication, namely 081382739874/-75/-76.
