A twin-engine Indonesian police plane on Saturday went missing with 15 people on board en route to the island of Batam, south of Singapore, police said.

“The plane is thought to have crashed between the islands of Mensanak and Sebangka or Gentar.

“A search team recovered items apparently identified as being from the missing aircraft,’’ the police report said.

However, no other details were immediately available. (Reuters/NAN)
