Cunding Levi, Jayapura – Linked to terror acts that often happen around the mining area of PT Freeport Indonesia in Tembagapura, Mimika Regency, the Papua Traditional Council and the Papua Presidium Board have called for the withdrawal of members of the Indonesian military (TNI) and the police assigned to secure the mining area.

"Kelly Kwalik was previously held responsible. But now after his death, why are there still shootings?" asked the Papua Traditional Council chief, Forkorus Yoboisembut, who also demanded that the case be investigated until the perpetrator is caught.
