The Monas incident was an incident in Merdeka Square in Jakarta in Indonesia on 1 June 2008.
It occurred at the National Monument (Monas) in an attack against a public protest by the activist group National Alliance for the Freedom of Faith and Religion (AKKBB) that coincided with the anniversary of Pancasila.[citation needed]
The incident began when AKKBB held the demonstration near the National Monument, Jakarta, and later the AKKBB aggregate was attacked by the group of Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) members. FPI masses beat the AKKBB protesters in various ways, including damaging of loudspeakers and burning of banners. 14 persons were reported injured and nine were taken to hospital.[1] The demonstration that had been coordinated with the police presence was then disbanded, thus some people fled to the National Gallery while inviting journalists to come to the rescue.[2] The head of the public relations department of police headquarters, the Inspector General Abubakar Nataprawira denied the police had made any negligence on the escort of the demonstrators.[3]
