INDONESIA: Alleged brutal torture and sexual abuse by the Banda Raya police

INDONESIA: Alleged brutal torture and sexual abuse by the Banda Raya police
ASIAN HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION - URGENT APPEALS PROGRAMME
Urgent Appeal Update: AHRC-UAU-060-2008
15 October 2008
During the trial, the judge did not examine the perpetrated acts of
torture but rather focused on the sexual orientation of Hartoyo. He
further advised him to turn away from this sin. He gave the
impression that the accused should be allowed to beat and assault the
victim on the grounds of his different sexual orientation. In
addition, the investigating officer failed to demonstrate exactly how
the acts of torture were committed by the accused.
