Police in Bali still believe Sydney man Andrew Chan masterminded the attempt to smuggle nine kilograms of heroin to Australia. But they say evidence from other suspects points to Brisbane man Tach Duc Nguyen as a second ringleader. They still do not know where the heroin was bought. At least three suspects claim they were forced to take part in the drug run, and threats were made against their families if they refused. The strain of incarceration is already taking its toll, with one suspect briefly hospitalised for stress, and others complaining of sleepless nights. It could still be days, if not weeks, before charges are laid. - --- MAP posted-by: Larry Seguin
