TAPOL Bulletin No. 15, April 1976
TAPOL Bulletin no. 15, April 1976. Editorial links East Timor killings to the 1965-66 massacres; the issue devotes pages to a mimeographed East Java massacre report and to translated fictional accounts (Gestapu: Indonesian Short Stories, ed. Harry Aveling). Gerwani appears incidentally: victims included members of the PKI, 'Gerwani' and Pemuda Rakyat (p.5), and in one story an interrogator wishes he could call 'Kijem, the prostitute, and Gerwani' instead of his friend Sri (p.6). Also Oei Tju Tat's 13-year sentence.
TAPOL Bulletin no. 15, April 1976. Tajuk menghubungkan pembunuhan di Timor Timur dengan pembantaian 1965-66; edisi ini memuat laporan stensilan pembantaian Jawa Timur dan cerita fiksi terjemahan (Gestapu: Indonesian Short Stories, ed. Harry Aveling). Gerwani muncul sepintas: korban mencakup anggota PKI, 'Gerwani' dan Pemuda Rakyat (hlm. 5), dan dalam satu cerita seorang pemeriksa berharap dapat memanggil 'Kijem, si pelacur, dan Gerwani' menggantikan temannya Sri (hlm. 6). Juga vonis 13 tahun Oei Tju Tat.
“p.5: 'The victims of the hurricane of fury unleashed on Indonesians were members of the PKI, of the communist women's movement Gerwani, and the communist youth movement Pemuda Rakyat.'”
