Red Cross worker and two others killed in Indonesia ATTENTION - RECA

Three people -- including a Red Cross worker -- have reportedly been killed in Indonesia's Aceh province.

Local officials say the body of the local Red Cross chief was found dead with gunshot wounds and torture marks in Bireun district.

The bodies of a businessman and political activist were also found nearby with gunshot wounds.

Earlier a gunbattle between rebels and soldiers left one insurgent dead.

Seperatist rebels in Aceh have been fighting for an independent Islamic state since 1976.
