Indonesia has enacted Law No 39 of 1999 on Human Rights and Law No. 26 of 2000 on Human Rights Court consistent with the relevant international human rights instruments. Under Article 71of Law No 39 of 1999 The Indonesian Government is obliged and responsible to respect, protect, enforce, and promote human rights as stipulated in this Law, other legislation, and the human rights international laws ratified by the Republic of Indonesia .

The human rights are clearly violated by the Indonesia Authorities both civilian and military officials.
