View all search resultsIndonesia’s rehabilitation and disengagement program needs urgent improvement for the country to cope with the future threats of returnees or “deportees”. Around 775 former Indonesian Islamic State (IS) group sympathizers are scattered in several camps in Syria. Most of them are women and children who wish to return to Indonesia. However, none of Indonesia’s reliable programs have been proven effective.
In a report released on Tuesday, the think tank argued that repatriation remained a nonpriority "for anyone in government", urging the authorities to begin with identifying vulnerable groups, such as children, given that they could face threatening conditions and further radicalization in the camps.
The body of a pregnant Indonesian woman who was believed to be a member of the Islamic State (IS) militant group has been found after reportedly being beaten to death at the Kurdish-run Al-Hol camp in Al-Hasakah, Syria.
