Gross human rights violations in Indonesia starting 1965 and continuing till now, has caused a lot of victims. The Trisakti tragedy on 12 May 1998 and the bloody riots all across Indonesia on 13 and 14 May 1998 are two of the cases of gross human rights violations that took place during the Soeharto era. The incidents took more than 1000 human lives and caused billiard rupiah damage on property, after plenty of shops, office buildings and housings were burnt to the ground.
However the law suit of the May 1998 cases are left unattended at the Attorney General’s Office and there is still no clear decision on how the legal proceeding will continue. This uncertainty on the legal aspect of the May 1998 incident causes concern with the victims and family members.
