Jakarta governor says six dead in Indonesia post-election unrest by costa_gusty kanupriyakapoor
JAKARTA - Six people died in civil unrest that gripped parts of Jakarta on Tuesday night after the election commission confirmed that President Joko Widodo won last month’s election, the governor of the Indonesian capital said.
News agency Antara reported that a small number of protesters had attempted to storm a nearby police station and were using tables as barricades. “We will keep going with these protests until he falls,” said Afi Sikumbang, 58, a Prabowo supporter. On Monday, an election supervisory agency dismissed claims of systematic cheating, citing a lack of evidence. Independent observers have said the poll was free and fair.
