"We have set up a coordinating team with the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia," the BNP2TKI Head Jumhur Hidayat said on the sidelines of the agency`s coordination meeting with Indonesian representatives in border areas here on Tuesday.
Hidayat added that he had sent the agency`s director for protection of workers, Brig. Gen Bambang Purwanto, to Malaysia to investigate the incident.
"The team was sent to investigate the sadistic incident," Hidayat said.
He noted that reports that the removal of the body organs of the victims for commercial purposes were still too early to confirm and were only speculative.
The manpower agency chief said that several parts of bodies had to be examined in performing an autopsy, so there are stitches remaining in the victims` body.
"Yet, this does not mean that there are body organs that were sold," he added.(*)
