Four Soldiers Stand Trial for Acid Attack on Activist Critical of Militarisation

Four Indonesian soldiers appeared in a Jakarta military court charged with prem­editated assault for an acid attack on activist Andrie Yunus, who campaigns against militarisation. The March 12 attack left Yunus with burns over more than 20% of his face and body and blinded in one eye. The defendants, reportedly linked to the military’s Strategic Intelligence Agency, allegedly acted without official orders, and the attack was planned at a military lodge with fluids sourced from a workshop. The maximum sentence is 12 years. A May 6 hearing is expected to feature witnesses as the case continues, with rights groups noting broader links to the assault.
