News, articles and information from and on West Papua in January 2002

 Editorial Notes:

This is the index of news, articles and information for year 2002.

Theys' Assassination investigation shows a clue that Indonesian military (Kopassus) was the actor of the terrorist act. What about the statements made in previous weeks, refusing to be responsible for the murder? We carefully watch what they will do? Most probably they will blame individuals, not Kopassus as the killer.
