Indonesia Protesters Clash With Police at Anti-Military Law Rally

SURABAYA - A violent clash broke out on March 24 in the Indonesian metropolis of Surabaya between police and demonstrators protesting against the country's newly passed military law, AFP journalists witnessed.

Around 1,000 students and activists dressed in black participated in the protest in front of an East Java government building.

Holding posters that said "Reject the military law", and "The military should return to the barracks", protesters hurled rocks, sticks and Molotov cocktails towards police controlling the demonstration.

Police eventually used water cannon to disperse the protesters at around 7pm local time.
