Mama Yasinta Reports LBH to Police Regarding 'Pesta Babi' Documentary
Yasinta Moiwend, better known as Mama Yasinta, has reported the Legal Aid Institute (LBH) to the Metro Jaya Regional Police. This report is related to a documentary film titled "Pesta Babi". Mama Yasinta is one of the main figures appearing in the film.
The film "Pesta Babi" itself is a documentary work that tells the story of the eviction of indigenous land in Papua. The film aims to showcase the struggle of local communities in defending their rights. However, the situation became complicated when Mama Yasinta expressed objections to the film.
In her report, Mama Yasinta requested that the screening of the documentary be stopped immediately. Although she is a subject in the film, she feels that there are things that do not align with the agreement or her wishes. This is what triggered the legal action against the LBH parties involved in the distribution or production of the film.
This case has attracted the attention of many parties as it involves issues of indigenous rights and freedom of expression. LBH, which is usually known as a defender of citizens' rights, now faces a lawsuit from someone they previously helped in voicing indigenous land issues.
Currently, the police are still conducting further investigations regarding the report. The public and human rights activists continue to monitor the development of this case to see the future of the film "Pesta Babi" and its impact on the advocacy of Papuan issues at the national level.
