Jakarta, April 25 -- The Indonesian government is preparing to repatriate the remains of Private First Class Rico Pramudia, an Indonesian peacekeeper who sustained severe injuries while serving with UNIFIL in southern Lebanon last March and passed away on Friday (April 24).

"The administrative process to repatriate the late soldier is ongoing, while the TNI (Indonesian Defense Forces) has conveyed its condolences to Pramudia's family. His funeral arrangements will be subject to the family's decision," Indonesian Army Information Office Chief Brigadier General Donny Pramono said on Saturday.

According to a press release, the exact date of the arrival of the remains in Indonesia has yet to be determined as preparations are still underway....
