Yaseman (103), a resident of Wonokerso Village, Pakisaji Subdistrict, Malang Regency, East Java, testified before a panel of judges from the De Haag Court, the Netherlands through skype connections, about the violence he experienced while being held captive by Dutch soldiers in 1947 last Friday (Friday) 7/7) in Malang. Yaseman was captured by the Dutch army at the time, and forced to claim to be an Indonesian independence fighter. Because he was reluctant to admit, he was tortured and jailed for 13 months in five different places in the Malang region. At present the case is handled by the Dutch Honorary Debt Committee (KUKB), and submitted to a hearing in The Hague, Netherlands. The Yaseman case is the first case of acts of violence during the independence war that was presented to the court table in the Netherlands.-JP / Wahyoe Boediwardhana / Adi / 19
