Final Report of the International People's Tribunal on Crimes Against Humanity in Indonesia 1965

Article number 10219116

Final Report of the International People's Tribunal on Crimes Against Humanity in Indonesia 1965 presents a detailed account of a civil society tribunal held in The Hague in 2015 that examined alleged crimes against humanity committed during the Indonesian mass violence of 1965–1966, a period marked by widespread killings, imprisonment, and persecution of suspected communists and others. The report compiles testimonies from victims and witnesses, expert analyses, and documentary evidence to reconstruct events and assess responsibility, situating these findings within international human rights and legal frameworks. It also addresses the broader political and historical context of the Cold War, the role of state institutions, and the long-term impact on Indonesian society, aiming to contribute to historical clarification, acknowledgment of victims, and discussions on justice and accountability, without functioning as a formal legal judgment.
