Nine students of Djuanda University (Unida), Bogor, West Java have disappeared following an incident on 9 May during which a police officer was killed. Initially, 29 were unaccounted for, but 17 have now returned home and three are under arrest. But nine are still unaccounted for.

The police officer died and another officer was beaten up when university students were holding free-speech forums supporting the movement for reform. The police therefore carried out a large number of arrests of students and local residents.

The Legal Aid Institute has set up a Defence Team for Unida Students, together with several human rights and legal aid groups in the city.

The team has called for the release of the three students now in custody or at the least for them to be placed under town arrest so as to permit them to continue with their studies.
