On Monday, December 18, 2017, two farmers from Tangar Village, Kotabesi, East Kotawaringin, Central Kalimantan Province, named Agus and Abu Saman, became victims of violence and shootings from local police officers, located in oil palm plantation of PT. Bumi Sawit Kencana (BSK), a subsidiary of Wilmar Group. Both victims are still in medical care at Dr Murjani Hospital, Sampit City.
This is not the first violent incident involving security forces in the PT. BSK oil palm plantation. Previously, on 27 July 2013 residents also clashed with the security company of PT BSK. The villagers were protesting due to the company's activities digging canals on conflicted land. The clash left four people injured. The recurrence of clashes between citizens and PT BSK is a result from agrarian conflicts, land grabs, injustice, violent act, strong security approaches and no conflict resolution.
