Does Indonesia’s Brimob police unit have a licence to kill?

This summer in Indonesia, the Mobile Brigade Corps (Brimob) paramilitary police unit sparked controversy after killing a 21-year-old man during a protest. The elite armed unit, which already had a reputation for misconduct, has often been deployed to ensure security or suppress separatist movements in Indonesia, sometimes leaving dozens dead in its wake. FRANCE 24’s reporters Mélodie Sforza and Alexis Bregere met with some of the unit’s victims.
