Human rights groups have criticized what they call the Indonesian government’s complacency in dealing with rampant rights abuses.
Activists from several human rights groups, including the Commission for Missing Persons and Victims of Violence (Kontras), Setara Institute, Asian Human Rights Centre (AHRC), Communion of Indonesian Churches (PGI), International Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ) and International Protection (IP), came down hard on the government’s statement delivered at the United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC), which they said overstated claims on human rights protection in the country.
