According to the information received, on 1 December 2015, indigenous Papuans commemorated their National Day through numerous peaceful demonstrations and prayer services across Indonesia. At demonstrations and events held in Jakarta, Yapen Island and Nabire, security forces used blockades, tear gas and violence to end the commemorations, resulting in the injury of 141 individuals and death of four individuals. Another 355 individuals were arrested and detained, and two were charged with criminal offences. All individuals were subsequently released and the charges brought against the two individuals dropped. Previous communications concerning the exercise by indigenous Papuans of their rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of expression were sent on 9 October 2015 see A/HRC/31/79, case no. IDN 8/2015; 1 May 2014, see A/HRC/27/72, case no. IDN 2/2014; 23 September 2013, see A/HRC/25/74, case no. IDN 4/2013; and 24 July 2012, see A/HRC/22/67, case no. IDN 6/2012. MYS 3/2016 Malaysia Summary executions; Torture; Allegations of violations of the rights to life, liberty and security of person of three Malaysian nationals. According to the information received, Mr. Gunasegar Pitchaymuthu, Mr. J Ramesh Jayakumar and Mr. Sasivarnam Jayakumar were sentenced to death by a Malaysian court for a murder committed on 16 April 2005. As the capital punishment is mandatory for murder in Malaysia, the Courts were not allowed to commute their death sentences, which were upheld on 19 February 2014 by the Federal Court. The authorities did not send this decision to the families of the three men. It is believed that in December 2015 the Prisons Board of Kedah State rejected a pardon appeal submitted by the three co-defendants. However, the authorities did not transmit any decision in this regard to their families or lawyers, leaving them in uncertainty. On 23 March 2016, the authorities of the Taiping Prison informed the families of the co-defendants that they would be executed soon and to prepare for their funerals. The three co-defendants were due to be executed on Friday 25 March 2016 by hanging at Taiping Prison. Reply A/HRC/33/32 29
