Protesters destroy car on Sudirman Street

Protesters on Tuesday destroyed a government car passing through the Sudirman Street in front of the Atmajaya University.

Elshinta radio reported that the protesters stopped the car, forced the driver to leave the car and set it on fire, causing panic among people watching the protest.

A spokeswoman from the university told Elshinta radio that the
protesters were not Atmajaya students.

She added her students were still taking the university final exams when the incident occurred.

She claimed the protesters called for an investigation into the death of Maftuh Fauzi, a student from the National University who died last Friday after he was released from police jail and
received treatment from hospitals.

The demonstrators also reportedly rejected the fuel price hikes.
