The Jakarta Post , Jakarta | Fri, 11/27/2009 3:44 PM | Jakarta
Dozens of women and children were trampled as they struggled to get a share of Idul Adha sacrificial meat at the Bhayangkara field at the National Police compound in South Jakarta on Friday.
Medical staff brought the wounded ones to an ambulance on standby in the area.
Kompas.com reported that thousands of residents had waited since morning for the disbursement of 24 slaughtered cows and five goats.
Officers saw the long waiting line and let them in. As a result, the women and children were trampled.
The residents are now at a field in the compound waiting for the distribution. (ewd)
