There has even been a request to the court to  arrest the President during the visit,” Yudhoyono said.The Indonesian government, he said, has sent a letter to the Dutch Prime Minister informing the postponement of the visit.<a href="http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2010/10/05/sby039s-postponement-netherlands-visit-linked-issues-arrest.html" target="_blank">thejakartapost</a></blockquote>
