103 students in Bogor treated after suspected food poisoning

103 students at a public junior high school in Cisarua, Bogor, became ill after eating a free school meal.

Officials said the students were treated at a hospital and were in stable condition.

Officials suspect the milk served with the meal, because symptoms appeared after students drank it.

The meal program serves 881 students at the school, and 103 showed symptoms.

Bogor officials sent food and drink samples for laboratory testing to identify the cause.

The kitchen supplying the meals is suspended for 20 days while it is reviewed and the test results are awaited.

Health teams planned to observe the students before they went home and check on them afterward.
