Clarification of SDF Involvement in Tomer Leste
Arrest
|
|
|
The
ADF wishes to clarify its involvement in events surrounding the
arrest of Mr Lobato. The ADF did not arrest Mr Lobato as suggested
in some media reports. ADF personnel have been providing security
at Mr Lobato’s home for the past 24-36 hours, and they were
still in attendance when prosecutors arrived. Upon request from
the Timor Leste authorities, the ADF also provided armed protection
for the prosecutors, as we have on other occasions. The arrest
of Mr Lobato was effected by the Timor Leste authorities and remains
a matter for them.
