Megawati Sukarnoputri
On July 27,1996, Indonesian government forces attacked the head office of ousted Indonesian Democratic Party (PDI) leader Megawati Sukarnoputri. The military junta used thousands of riot police and troops to put down protests by her supporters. The clashes were the most serious in the capital since President Suharto and his fellow generals seized power in the bloody coup of 1965.
Megawati was removed as PDI leader at a party congress orchestrated by the Suharto regime. Hand-picked delegates replaced her with Suharto’s nominee, former PDI leader Suryadi. The military moved in as the protests surrounding the PDI offices threatened to generate a wider movement involving industrial workers, sections of the middle class and university youth.
