2) Papuans Behind Bars: December 2013
At the end of December 2013, there were at least 70 political
prisoners in Papuan jails. After a period of sustained demonstrations
and 112 political arrests in November, this month saw fewer
demonstrations and no political arrests.
As reported in our November update, on 1 December 2013, two Papua New
Guinea nationals and one West Papuan were arrested in Port Moresby,
Papua New Guinea, during a ceremony raising the Papuan Morning Star
flag, held to commemorate the date which West Papuans consider to be
their national day. The three men have been released on bail. The
arrests show the curbing of free expression extending beyond Indonesia’s
borders, and a PNG civil society group has criticised Indonesia’s alleged interference.
While the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention declared in November
2011 that detaining people for raising the Morning Star flag is a
violation of international law, there has been an increase in the number
of detentions relating to the Morning Star flag in 2013.
Six detainees in the Aimas 1 May case were sentenced to 1.5 years’
imprisonment for conspiracy to commit treason under Articles 106 and 110
of the Indonesian Criminal Code. Isak Klaibin, who the court considered
to be the leader of the gathering on 30 April, was sentenced to 3.5
years’ imprisonment under the same charges and an additional charge
under the Emergency Law 12/1951. Yan Christian Warinussey, the Executive
Director of LP3BH (Institute for Research, Investigation and
Development of Legal Aid in Manokwari, Lembaga Penelitian, Pengkajian dan Pengembangan Bantuan Hukum), stated that
the sentencing reflected poorly on the situation of human rights in
Papua, particularly with regards to freedom of expression.
Despite attempts by the Provost and vice-Provost of Cenderawasih University (Universitas Cenderawasih, UNCEN) in November 2013 to suppress political activity on campus, students continued to protest against the detention of student leader Yason Ngelia, holding a further demonstration on 12 December.
West Papua attracted further international attention, with the
completion of the ‘Pedalling for Papua’ campaign at Abepura prison,
Jayapura, where human rights activist Jeremy Bally delivered global
messages of support to the prisoners. There were concerns over distorted
media coverage of his visit and Indonesian news outlets were criticised
as misrepresentative.
