The US Embassy has issued a statement condemning the violence against peaceful demonstrators which took place June 1, 2008 at the National Monument (Monas) in Jakarta.
"This type of violent behavior has serious repercussions for freedom of religion and association in Indonesia, and raises security concerns," said the statement, which was issued on Tuesday.
"We are concerned for those who were injured and wish them well in recovering from their injuries. We welcome the statement by President Yudhoyono today for legal action against those responsible for this violence," the embassy said.
"We urge the Government of Indonesia to continue to uphold freedom of religion for all its citizens as enshrined in the Indonesian Constitution," it added.(**)
