Indah Setiawati , The Jakarta Post , Jakarta | Wed, 09/24/2008 7:45 PM | Jakarta
National Alliance for the Freedom of Faith and Religion (AKKBB) activists M. Guntur Romli and Nong Darol came to the city police headquarters on Wednesday to report being assaulted during the National Monument ambush trials.
"My report was received by the Police Service Center head Comr. Didik Kusdiyanto. I reported Subhan and Sunarto, members of the FPI (Islam Defenders Front) for their attacks," Guntur said.
He earlier said the two men, who are defendants of the Monas ambush trial, kicked his leg and hit his head after he finished giving testimony during a hearing session of their trial on Monday.
Meanwhile, Nong reported two men allegedly grouped and hit her stomach and forehead outside a courtroom where Islam Command Troop leader Munarman appeared for a hearing session.
She claimed that although she did not recognize the man who hit her head, she knew the other man who harassed her.
