Kopassus – tactical inside story of controversial elite force
Pacific Scoop:
Review – By Ezki Suyanto

At one point during Aceh’s nearly 35-year battle for autonomy from Indonesia, a woman approached an officer at a military post in the village of Trio.

The Acehnese woman alleged that she had been raped by a member of the Kopassus, also known as the Indonesian army’s Special Forces.

An investigation was launched into the matter. It was decided that the rape never took place. [ Visit Website ]

A series of threats and violence in the mining area of PT Freeport Indonesia is unlikely to cease despite the death of the Free Papua Movement (OPM) leader Kelly Kwalik, who was believed to be behind the terror in Papua. The Jan. 24 shooting was the 4th shooting incident in the last seven months, causing an increase in the security and military measures of the mining company.
