In Sumenep, Madura there was violence between groups that both claimed to be Sunni Muslims. Kiai Supardi, an immigrant who quickly rose to fame, initiated a group called Wali Songo Akbar in the early 1990s. In 1998, the Wali Songo Akbar Islamic Boarding School was vandalized and burned by a mob, then Kiai Supardi's followers demanded responsibility by kidnapping a local kiai which led to clashes.
