According to Kontras (the Commission for Missing Persons and Victims of Violence), various acts of violence against civil liberties by members of the Indonesian National Police (Polri) have occurred over the past year.

This violence includes the forceful dispersal of demonstrations and arbitrary arrests of protesters.

Between July 2024 and June 2025, Polri's violence against civil liberties resulted in 1,020 victims.

The majority of victims were college students, with 408 individuals arrested and 318 injured.

Other victims included non-criminal citizens, students, human rights activists, paramedics, farmers, and journalists, as shown in the graph.

"This cannot be viewed merely as statistics, but rather as a massive regression and a lack of seriousness on the part of the state in upholding the rule of law and respecting human rights and democracy," wrote Kontras in its Kertas Kebijakan Hari Bhayangkara 2025.

"Normatively, the protection of forms of expression containing criticism of the state is guaranteed by the 1945 Indonesian Constitution. Article 28E, paragraph (3) of the constitution affirms that 'everyone has the right to freedom of association, assembly, and expression'," it continued.

Kontras compiled this data from media reports verified by the Indonesian Press Council; case handling by Kontras as a human rights advocacy institution; Kontras's local network; and the Public Information Disclosure as regulated in Law Number 14 of 2008.
