Suharto siblings quizzed

Police in Indonesia have questioned two sons and a daughter of former president Suharto over the whereabouts of their brother, Tommy Suharto.

He has been missing since early November when police issued a warrant for his arrest on corruption charges.

Lawyers for the family say they have no idea of his whereabouts.

Earlier, President Abdurrahman Wahid had ordered that Tommy Suharto's mobile phone be tapped, following reports that he was in regular contact with his family.

Tommy Suharto was sentenced in September to eighteen months in jail after being convicted of defrauding the state in a land deal.
