Indonesia: Suharto's body returns home for state funeral
The body of former Indonesian president Suharto, who led a military dictatorship for three decades and whose US-backed regime killed hundreds of thousands of left-wing opponents, arrived in his home town today for a state funeral.
A Hercules C-130 carrying Suharto’s body arrived in the city of Solo, 250 miles east of the capital Jakarta, accompanied by two planes used by his family and friends.
