Hundreds Of Youths From Various Towns In The Reception Of Yuli Harsono's Janaza

.
KEBUMEN, Indonesia – At last, the janaza of Yuli Harsono 33, who was shot to death by the Densus 88 in Klaten some time ago, in conjunction with the arrest of Abdullah Sunata, could be buried in the Islamic way. After a nine-hour journey from the Kramat Jati Polri Hospital to Kebumen, at 08:30 hour, Tuesday, 29th June 2010, the janaza arrived in Dukuh Duwet village, Kebumen.

Hundreds of sympathizers had been waiting at the house, who were mostly youths from a number of towns, including Solo, Jogja and Semarang. Those hundreds of youth were waiting in front of Yuli's parents house, shouting takbeer repeatedly while receiving the janaza. After that they were allowed to go inside and witness the janaza. "The Janaza is smiling!", yelled one of the sympathizers after coming out from the house.

Next, it was followed by a prayer for the janaza, which had to be done alternately for five times. Some sympathizers chose not to participate in offering the prayer, those who did not perform the prayer considered Yuli Harsono as having died in the state of war that the solatul janaza was unnecessary.

After the solatul janaza, the casket was then carried by those youths in their hundreds, on foot, heading for the burial location which was 3 km away. "Allahu Akbar! The police are kafir!", yelled the youths, whereas there were dozens of police personnels at the burial location, whether in official dressings or plain-clothed.

Finally, at 10:00 hour, the funeral procession was complete and closed with a do'a by an Islamic figure of Kebumen from the FTJ (Front Toriqul Jihad) named Mr. Daldiri, who offered do'a while shedding tears, as well as reminding the youths to not forget struggling and be strengthened by Allah.

Blood Still Flowing From Yuli's Wounds

KEBUMEN, Indonesia – At least, there were four bullet holes on the body of Yuli Harsono who died in the shooting incident with the Densus 88 in Klaten last week, on Wednesday afternoon, 23rd June 2010, to be exact. The moment the janaza of Yuli arrived at his parents' residence in Dukuh Duwet, Kebumen, the casket of the janaza was opened in order to get a view the wounds on the body of Yuli.

Then, the shroud on part of the leg was uncovered and bullet scars that had been stitched were visible on the right knee, the kneecap was in a broken condition and had already been stitched. Then, on the right thigh, there were two bullet scars, these wounds had also been stitched, but the traces of holes and black bruises were still visible.

Wife of Yuli Harsono, Siti Istihanah (33) who is a midwife looked so strong, she uncovered the shroud at the neck, autopsy incision and suture marks were visible, these wounds were still bleeding. Two sons of Yuli who are still small, Ahwan Ayyas (8) and Hilal Syuhada (2) also looked at the janaza of their father without crying. Only Yuli Harsono's mother, Martiyem (60) appeared not that strong as she fainted when seeing the janaza of his second son who is an ex-member of the TNI (National Armed Forces of Indonesia) which he joined in 1997.
