The 30 September Movement: A Political Movement of the Armed Forces or an Intelligence Operation?
The 30 September Movement: a political movement of the armed forces or an intelligence operation? (Holtzappel, 1979)
Journal article by Coen Holtzappel (Journal of Contemporary Asia, 1979) analysing the Untung and Njono trial records to argue the 30 September Movement was steered by Air Force and Army intelligence, with Sjam's Pringgodani group deliberately compromising the PKI and Aidit. Gerwani is mentioned only once, in a footnote naming Sampir, husband of Gerwani deputy chair Suharti, as the PKI's tortured intelligence expert. Context for the army's PKI-blame narrative behind the Lubang Buaya slander.
Artikel jurnal Coen Holtzappel (Journal of Contemporary Asia, 1979) yang menganalisis berkas sidang Untung dan Njono untuk berargumen bahwa Gerakan 30 September digerakkan intelijen AU dan AD, dengan kelompok Pringgodani pimpinan Sjam sengaja menyudutkan PKI dan Aidit. Gerwani hanya disebut sekali dalam catatan kaki: Sampir, suami Suharti, wakil ketua Gerwani, sebagai ahli intelijen PKI yang disiksa. Konteks narasi penyalahan PKI oleh Angkatan Darat di balik fitnah Lubang Buaya.
“p.240 n.35: PKI's official intelligence expert 'was tortured during his interrogation, defected'; 'his name was Sampir, husband of Suharti. She was at the time the Deputy Chairman of the Gerwani.'”
