Indische Courant voor Nederland (16 Nov 1949, p.1): correspondent in Makassar reports that councillor Salawati Daud, leader of the band that ambushed Th. Pluyter near Masamba, was arrested in a cave 8 km from Masamba. Described as a well-known extreme-left woman, she borrowed the mayor's car; five students of a Makassar school followed. The paper links the affair to agitation within a political party.
