TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Papua swirls in another hot tension as another shooting took place in Lanny Jaya Regency, Papua. The Free Papua Organization (OPM) ambushed a convoy of Police Mobile Brigade on Monday morning, August 4, injuring one police member.

"We opened fire. I request the government to pull back the troops from Papua. Papua wants freedom," said Purom Okiman Wenda, OPM Commander of Lanny Jaya. "If you want to die, please come. We do not shoot all people. We only shoot police and troops."

He added that bothe the police and army will not be able to catch them, given the harsh terrain that provides Purom's group protection. "The chase use, we chase them back. We only have arrows. They have guns. We'll see who wins this fight," said Purom.

In response to the ambush, Papua Police Spokesman Senior Commissioner Sulistiyo Pudjo said that the militia led by Purom Wenda has a motive of disturbing social development activity. Pudjo added that the convoy was inbound to pick teachers in Lanny Jaya, before facing the ambush.
