De Waarheid, 12 Jun 1975, p. 1: short report that a tribunal in Balikpapan (East Kalimantan) sentenced Sutinah Wiryosutejo, a leader of the women's organisation Gerwani, to twenty years' imprisonment, ten years after Suharto's coup, on charges of 'participation in the 1965 coup' that the paper calls false. OCR partly garbled.

De Waarheid, 12 Jun 1975, hlm. 1: laporan singkat bahwa pengadilan militer di Balikpapan (Kalimantan Timur) menjatuhkan hukuman dua puluh tahun kepada Sutinah Wiryosutejo, pimpinan organisasi perempuan Gerwani, sepuluh tahun setelah kudeta Suharto, dengan dakwaan 'keterlibatan dalam kudeta 1965' yang disebut koran itu palsu. OCR sebagian kacau.
