The National Commission on Violence Against Women (Komnas Perempuan) has called for a full investigation into violence in the Lanny Jaya regency of Papua and the use of an excessive security approach there.
“Komnas Perempuan regrets the recurrence of armed violence between armed civilian groups and security personnel, which has caused casualties and displaced persons in Lanny Jaya regency,” Komnas Perempuan said in a press statement as quoted by Antara news agency on Sunday.
The commission urged all parties, to exercise restraint, stop the violence and prioritize non-violent means to resolve any problems.
Komnas Perempuan also asked police officers not to use an excessive approach in the regency, as it could lead to mass displacements.
Two police officers and a civilian were killed and several police officers were wounded in an attack by a civilian armed group on Monday.
The Indonesian Military (TNI) launched a manhunt on Friday, killing five members of the Free Papua Movement (OPM) thought to be responsible for Monday’s attack.
