INDONESIA must be suspended from the United Nations Human Rights Council for its systematic racism and discrimination against West Papuans, independence leader Benny Wenda said on Saturday.
He spoke after the brutal attack on a deaf West Papuan man called Steven Yadohamang by Indonesian soldiers in the town of Merauke last week.
Footage showed Mr Yadohamang’s head being crushed under the boots of military officers, and Mr Wenda said the incident had been compared to the killing of George Floyd in the US last year.
