"Indonesian Actor Busted in Drug Bust" . As supposed to...
Why does he still require "intensive questioning" before "being named a suspect" He either had the drugs on him when initially "arrested" as was reported - or he didn't.
If he had drugs, then he should have been arrested and charged on the spot - if he didn't, he should have never been apprehended at all.
The article doesn't actually say if he has been held in custody or is "voluntarily attending for intensive questioning".
Now....what was that most recent "offer"????? Not enough yet?????

Jakarta. An Indonesian actor allegedly arrested in possession of 50 grams of crystal methamphetamine on Wednesday is yet to be named a suspect by Jakarta Police.
Comr. Christian Siagian, head of West Jakarta Police’s narcotics division, told Antara on Friday that Fifaldi Surya Permana, popularly known as Revaldo, was still undergoing intensive questioning.
“Just are waiting until we finish questioning him,” Christian said, adding that police were expecting to hold a press conference on Friday afternoon.
Revaldo has previously spent two years behind bars for possession of the same drug, known locally as shabu-shabu.
The sinetron (soap opera) actor had been the focus of a two-week police operation after an alleged drug dealer tipped off authorities.
On Wednesday, police followed Revaldo to Tebet in South Jakarta where they witnessed him buying drugs from the dealer. Revaldo, however, saw police approaching and fled in his car, leading police on a chase that ended on Jalan S. Parman in West Jakarta.
Police found 50 grams of methamphetamine, a package of marijuana and a bong.
The actor gained popularity after starring in the sinetron “Ada Apa Dengan Cinta” (“What’s Up with Love”), adapted from the hit movie of the same name.
