Buletin TAPOL no. 29 (London, Agustus 1978): penilaian pembebasan tapol 1977–78, kamp pemukiman, kritik ILO, tulisan Wertheim tentang Suharto dan sidang Latief, diskriminasi eks-tapol, serta sidang. Halaman 11 melaporkan dr. Tanti Aidit, janda D.N. Aidit dan anggota Gerwani yang mengelola klinik Gerwani, akan diadili setelah 11 tahun diisolasi; ibunya, Ny. Mudigdio, anggota DPR dari PKI. Plantungan tercatat dengan 117 orang dibebaskan.

“p.11 'Dr Aidit... ran a medical clinic for the left wing women's organisation, Gerwani (banned in 1965)'; her arrest and harsh isolation stem mainly from being the widow of PKI chairman Aidit, though she was a Gerwani member in her own right.”
