November 2016 Jakarta protests (also called Protests defending the Quran[1] or 4 November protests[2]) refer to an Islamist mass protest which took place on 4 November 2016 in Jakarta, Indonesia. It was attended by an estimated 50,000–200,000 protesters,[3][4] and was aimed against the Governor of Jakarta Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (popularly known by his Chinese nickname "Ahok"), for alleged blasphemy of the Quran, the Islamic holy book.[5] A counter-protest led by government officials and social activists in support of interfaith unity was led on 30 November.[6]
