ORANJESTAD, Aruba - Aruban prosecutors appealed court rulings ordering the release Saturday of a Dutch teenager and two friends jailed in the disappearance of an Alabama woman.

Despite the order - and the impending release - police said the investigation into the woman's widely publicized disappearance will continue.

"The case of Natalee Holloway has not concluded with these (planned) releases," Adolfo Richardson, the police officer in charge, told The Associated Press.

Holloway's family and others have criticized the investigation, leading residents of this relatively crime-free Dutch Caribbean island to fear for their tourism industry and protest they are being unfairly targeted.

Many point out that no Aruban has been linked to the disappearance: those jailed are the Dutch teenager and two Surinamese men who were last seen with Holloway in the early hours of May 30.

Prosecutors late Friday appealed the judge's order allowing the conditional release Saturday of the Surinamese brothers.

Judge R. Smid ruled that Deepak Kalpoe, 18, and Satish Kalpoe, 21, could go free on the condition they remain on the island and available to police, said their attorneys Ruud Oomen and David Kock.

The judge agreed to their release "since the brothers were free for almost two months and made no attempt to evade justice," Oomen said.

"They maintain their innocence very, very emphatically," he added.

The court on Thursday had ordered Joran van der Sloot, now 18, freed under the same conditions.

Attempts to reach prosecutors for comment were unsuccessful.

Holloway, 18, disappeared after a night of eating, dancing and drinking. She was last seen leaving a nightclub with the three young men.
