TAPOL Bulletin No. 90, December 1988
TAPOL Bulletin no. 90 (London, Dec 1988): East Timor, Golkar congress, executions of two 1965 Cakrabirawa prisoners, Kopkamtib replaced by Bakorstanas, 'clean-self/clean-environment' screening, and Suharto's role in the G30S. In the G30S article, a section on a 'myth coming unstuck' says the 1965 press claims that Gerwani women mutilated the generals were refuted by autopsies published by Ben Anderson, which found gunshot and clubbing wounds and intact genitals.
Buletin TAPOL no. 90 (London, Desember 1988): Timor Timur, kongres Golkar, eksekusi dua tapol Cakrabirawa 1965, Kopkamtib diganti Bakorstanas, penyaringan 'bersih diri/bersih lingkungan', dan peran Suharto dalam G30S. Dalam artikel G30S, bagian 'mitos runtuh' menyebut tuduhan pers 1965 bahwa perempuan Gerwani memutilasi para jenderal dibantah oleh otopsi yang diterjemahkan Ben Anderson: luka tembak dan pukulan, alat kelamin utuh.
“1965 papers alleged the generals' eyes were gouged and genitals slashed, 'said to be the work of members of Gerwani'; the autopsies 'failed to discover any such thing... all the victims' penises [were] intact' (p. 21, 'Another myth comes unstuck').”
