The Committee to Protect Journalists has condemned the murder of a journalist in West Papua. The body of Ardiansyah Matra’is was found in a river days after he was one of four journalists to receive death threats. The killing comes just weeks after thousands of Papuans took to the streets demanding a referendum on West Papuan independence from Indonesia and an internationally mediated dialogue with Jakarta.
