Families have criticized their prison sentences – of between one and two years – as being too light.
“The Kanjuruhan tragedy was a gross human rights violation,” said Imam Hidayat, a spokesperson for the Kanjuruhan Tragedy Advocacy Team, who called on the Attorney General’s Office to form an independent team to investigate the tragedy.
Also among the demonstrators was a man named Daniel, whose daughter Elvi Duali died at the stadium.
“Even after a year, we (the victims’ families) still have not received justice.”Located in East Java, the Kanjuruhan Stadium was used mostly for soccer matches, with a supposed capacity of 38,000 spectators.
A clash between a number of Arema FC fans and police prompted security forces to fire tear gas into enclosed areas of the stadium.
