“This is me and Pedro when we were little, on his 5th birthday. We know what he is fighting for is always in people’s best interests. Before his own arrest, he was already advocating for the release of 600 protesters who were detained before him.”

00:57
Delpedro Marhaen is being held in a jail in Jakarta – and stands accused of inciting violence, like many others.

“I hope everyone will soon realize this is not just about Pedro and all the activists who have been arrested, but about democracy itself. It’s about all of us.”+++

01:42

+++ SOT Arif Maulana, Deputy of Advocacy and Networks YLBHI (Public Legal Aid Institution) +++
"((Yes,)) I see that the police are not transparent, not accountable, in relation to arrests, detentions, and also the naming of suspects from various parties in civil society who are then accused of being perpetrators of violence."+++

02:18
Other rights groups are also on the case. Amnesty International says it’s seeing a broader pattern of repression.

+++SOT Usman Hamid. Executive Director of Amnesty International in Indonesia+++ 
With the various cases that we have observed in the past year, there has been a lot of excessive use of force, arrest, arrest of the innocent, torture, and even unfair death in the tragedy of August. // We are concerned that Indonesia is no longer a democratic country that guarantees civil freedom. +++

02:53
The situation is causing alarm among ordinary citizens as well as respected public figures.

03:01
+++SOT Sinta Nuriyah Wahid, Former First Lady of Indonesia
“They are the children of our nation who will continue our fight for democracy. They only want Indonesia to be a sovereign country, in which one is free to speak out, and express opinions.”+++

03:16
A view shared by Delpedro Marhaen’s family. Together with others, they’ve now joined the weekly protest to demand transparency from the authorities – and a fair trial for those who’re currently behind bars.
