PAPUAN POLITICAL PRISONERS REJECTION OFFER OF INDONESIA GOVERNMENT PRESIDENT SBY FOR GRATING AND AMNESTY

Papuan political prisoners reject offer of Indonesian Government for amnesty


The bid by the Indonesian Government through the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, to grant amnesty for some political prisoners in Papua was rejected by political prisoners at Abepura penitentiary.
  
The Papuan political prisoners’ statement which was signed by 25 political prisoners serving sentences in Abepura prison stated the following: “We reject the plan granting clemency by the President of the Republic of Indonesia.”


This statement, received by Jubi on Friday (24/05) reinforces the position of these political prisoners: they themselves do not need to be released from prison, but they demand the release of the people of West Papua from the colonial occupation by the Indonesian Republic.

A few hours earlier, the Minister of Law and Human Rights, Amir Syamsuddin, had conveyed to journalists at the Parliament Building in Jakarta that amnesty would be granted to political prisoners in Papua.
“We are considering the granting of amnesty for political prisoners, because of the political background, especially the situation in Papua,” said Law Minister Amir Syamsuddin.

The 25 political prisoners who rejected the amnesty offer by the Indonesian Government are:
1. Filep J.S. Karma
2. Victor F Yeimo
3. Selpius Bobii
