    Adi, a security guard at the Bandung Institute of Technology has been reported to have been shot and died on November 12 although at this time the accuracy of information cannot be confirmed. Ina, who is believed to be a student at the Faculty of Economics at the University of Indonesia who was included in the first list [of those killed], but is not included in this list.

    The PAM Swakarsa members who died in Cawang were attacked by crowds because they had wounded a number of local people. One was stabbed in the face with a sharp bamboo stick and local people stick 20 thousand Rupiah notes on [their bodies] as a symbol that they were paid vigilantes.

    A SiaR reporter was only two metres from Heru Sudibyo (who was in front of the Plaza Central main gates) and Engkus (a student) who at this time is still in a coma after both of them were struck by bullets.
