Jerry Omona, Jakarta – The XVII Cenderawasih Military District Command in Papua is still investigating Army Special Forces (Kopassus) documents leaked by the media group, Fairfax Australia, last Saturday. The documents dated between 2006 and 2009 contained reports on the Free Papua Organization's separatist movement.

"I know the documents have been leaked but I can't explain it yet. So let's find out together with the media," commander Maj. Gen. Erfi Triassunu told Tempo yesterday.

He said the documents were leaked to upset Indonesia's sovereignty. "I don't think we should be disturbed by it," he said, adding that leaked documents had not harmed the unity of the nation.

The perpetrators only want to show that the Indonesian Armed Forces are not in a strong position to protect their valuable archives, he said. "We mustn't be provoked," Erfi said.

The documents name Papuan leaders allegedly involved in separatist movements and the condition of the 1,000 separatist members, including their weaponry capability.

The document titled "The Anatomy of Papua's Separatism" even names foreign supporters of the movement, including US senator Party Dianne Feinstein; British Parliament member Andrew Smith; the former Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea Michael Somare; and South African anti-apartheid fighter, archbishop Desmond Tutu.

A Free Papua Organization soldier in Keerom, Lambert Pekikir, stressed that the documents were not valid. "We don't have weapons or members as stated there. We fight without guns because that is the order from the headquarters," Lambert told Tempo.

The Papua House of Representatives (DPR) said the leak showed Kopassus' plan to terrorize Papuan leaders. "If the names are to be targeted and killed, we are against it," said Julius Miagoni, secretary of Papua's DPR's Commission A.
