Don’t Forget Cikeusik
By Saidiman Ahmad
Thousand of people were invaded, tortured and murdered. However only 12 people were arrested and presented at the hearing process in the court. Policemen who “allowed” the violence to happen had not yet became suspects. Ironically, one of Ahmadi family was judged to a the suspected. His head was hacked several times. His hands were almost severed and until now has not been functioning. So instead of punishing the attackers, they were sending him for 10 years in prison, because he is considered to provoke the anger of thousands of residents because he chose not to leave his office and defend his assets from being destroyed. It is strange, while the victim is threatened with 10 years in prison; the attackers were actually required to stay only from 5 to 7 months. In this country, defending private property rights can be a complicated matter, while criminals that is committed is very likely understandable.
