Tempo.co book notice (9 May 2010) on Saskia Wieringa's Indonesian edition of 'Penghancuran Gerakan Perempuan' (Galangpress 2010, transl. Harsutejo). Recounts the military propaganda of naked dancing, razor-cutting and castration at Lubang Buaya, Wieringa's rebuttal from 1982-85 interviews and autopsy results, and Siti Arifah's 1983 testimony of being invited for Dwikora training and later forced to dance naked.
Resensi Tempo.co (9 May 2010) atas edisi Indonesia buku Saskia Wieringa 'Penghancuran Gerakan Perempuan' (Galangpress 2010, terj. Harsutejo). Memuat propaganda militer tentang tarian telanjang, sayatan silet dan kastrasi di Lubang Buaya, bantahan Wieringa dari wawancara 1982-85 dan hasil otopsi, serta kesaksian Siti Arifah (1983) yang diundang latihan Dwikora lalu dipaksa menari telanjang.
“Siti, diwawancarai 22 Februari 1983, mengatakan kedatangannya ke Lubang Buaya justru diundang militer untuk latihan Dwikora. 'Saya melihat serdadu membunuh jenderal.' Setelah itu ia ditangkap dan diminta menari telanjang.”
