Stop press: PRD offices attacked
At 11.20pm on July 3, the office of the People's Democratic Party (PRD) in Yogyakarta, Central Java, was attacked by an unidentified group of men carrying machetes and swords. One carried a Molotov cocktail.
The gang shouted "God is great!" as they smashed their way into the office and trashed the contents. One PRD member was slashed on the back and arm, eight others managed to escape.
At 3am on July 4, 10 men in a car stopped in front of the PRD's East Jakarta office and threw rocks at it, smashing all the windows.
The PRD is also receiving anonymous telephone calls threatening more attacks if it does not stop its demonstrations demanding the disqualification of the ruling Golkar party because of its intimidation of voters and vote buying during the Indonesian election on June 7.
