80,000 may have died in Indonesian province: UN

The death toll in Indonesia’s Aceh province might reach 80,000, a UN official said.

“I would say we are probably talking about somewhere in the order of 80,000 people, 50 to 80,000 people, that would be my educated guess,” said Michael Elmquist, head of the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs for Indonesia.
