Attitude Statement of SORAK (People's Solidarity for Justice)

Tax: B/PS-SORAK/XII-08/02

FREE FARMERS DUSUN SULUK BONGKAL, CANCEL LETTER of DISMISSAL INVESTIGATIONS (SP3), FIRED OFF HEAD of RIAU POLICE DEPARTMENT (KAPOLDA RIAU), HEAD of RIAU ATTORNEY (KAJATI) NOW ..!

Greeting Freedom
Attacking to the farmers of Dusun Suluk Bongkal be a murdered to a people movement and be reflection of the rotten government that have been evident in the overt side of capital, with the support by the armed forces to be shielded from the power of the anti-people and protecting assets of foreign-asset wealth of the nation and to exploitation on large-scale above poverty on people.


Violence against farmers in the Dusun Suluk Bongkal by local police of Riau have proved their real face without thinking for long to human slaughter, and as a high-interest to the capitalism, the arrogant attitudes of KAPOLDA RIAU make us to extra carefully, because is not possible on the next his arrogant attitude could be trounce all movement of people from all sectors, be it farmers, laborers, the poor of the city and also students.


We need to explain the tragedy on December 18, 2008 at 10:00 AM be a mass slaughter which do by the troops Polda Riau Brimob, Samapta, PP Satpol, civilian who paid totally about thousands of people and directly led by Direskrim Polda Riau Kombes. Alex Mandalika, equipped with weapons (stick and firearm) and the water cannon and 2 helicopters who with stranger to drop explosives on citizen’s houses till burn and fired, this event swallow victim died 1 people (daughter aged 2.5 years) who panic when the collision and fall down into the wells, and indicated there are still victims of the soul, a pregnant mother got kick and bleeding, dozens of people injured and exposed to fire staggered, 2 people experiencing serious depression, one of them does not want to eat, ram's his to the wall and doesn't want to open his eyes, 76 people has catch and imprisoned without a clear legal certainty, hundreds of people experiencing trauma and fear and loss of material.


This is a serious human rights violations and surprising the world so that broadcast radio Germany preach that amnesty international has issued a statement that the government of Indonesia to immediately investigate the incident on the assault and breach of human rights more than 400 farmers in the Pinggir Sub district.

National Commission on Human Right (Komnas HAM) has came to that area to see about all rubble of a house burned, confirming that there has been violation of human rights and KAPOLDA Riau must be get a high punishment for this tragic humanity tragedy.

We need to explains that accusations from PT. Arara Abadi who said that Dusun Suluk Bongkal is an area of Rights control Plantation Forest Industry (HPHTI) PT. Arara Abadi is NOT TRUE, because the administrative Dusun Suluk Bongkal is a legal settlement based on the administrative map of Dusun Suluk Bongkal signed by Regent of Bengkalis on March 12, 2007 which covering 4586 ha (in the Government of Bengkalis District no. 0817-22 0817 -- 31.0618-54 0616 63). That land is obliged to remove from the area of Rights of Forest Plantation Industry (HPHTI) and the company is not entitled to use that land, especially to drive out people with force.
Not enough to do with the slaughter of the farmers, KAPOLDA Riau with the KAJATI Riau back boosted by recent policies that damaged the company's tie up 13 cases of illegal logging, the previous November 2008, Kapolda Riau has issued a statement in the mass media that will not do SP3 (Letters Termination command inspection) against to companies suspected of doing illegal activities of logging or forest. Previously, the replacement of Kapolda Riau Sutjiptadi to Hadiatmoko also with says will soon complete the cases of crimes in Riau forestry not until 100 days since the beginning of the work in the province of Riau. But there all only promise which not doing by the KAPOLDA.
There has been damage to forests in Riau where has knowledgeable around year 2005-2006 reached 200,000 hectares. That Damage has triggered the occurrence of a flood that has hurt residents in the nine districts and cities in the province of Riau, forest fires and land which resulted in 7,608 children affected by diseases such as respiration in 2005. Not to release the carbon dioxide emissions resulting from deforestation in Riau is 58% from the level of Australia's annual emissions, or 39% of the total annual UK emissions, and higher than the total annual emissions of Netherlands. Locals people enjoy the only area of 0.46 hectares of land / Head of Family (KK) because of the natural wealth in Riau have owned by powers capital.
At least 172,000 hectares FOREST IN RIAU will face destruction from deforestation, because the 13 companies that allegedly committed crimes are on FORESTRY NATURAL FOREST which still good and have HIGH POTENCY OF COMMERCIAL WOOD. Referring to the plan use of Riau (Regulation 10/1994), the area where the thirteenth company to operate in the zone is located to the allotment as a protected area. Worse, thirteenth companies operating in the area of peat land that has an important role in government efforts to control emissions of carbon dioxide from the soil drying and deforestation of peat land.

This SP3 will be a door opener for the increased intensity of natural forest denudation (deforestation), as well as stimulate the new license-permit for HTI and RKT (Annual Plan) for the license-permit HTI who are on peat land area and the forest area that still productive.

The Decisions of SP3 HAS BE A GAMBLING SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE FOR THE NAME of COMPANY’s INTERESTS and OWNERS.

Forestry crimes must be combating because it will cause a loss of society and threaten the safety of Riau.
DO ENFORCEMENT LAW FOR SP3 (Letters Termination command inspection) .......!!!!
Caused there is not responsive from the people who sit in the House of Representatives, national both and local levels, to the suffering of the people Riau, We invites the public aware to human rights, get normal life and healthy.

For that We are People's Solidarity for Justice (SORAK) demanded:
