Jakarta - Remains of 21 bodies were unearthed from multiple graves at the weekend by Indonesian human rights commissioners in the north Sumatran province of Aceh.
The discovery reinforces local peoples' claims that atrocities were committed by the army during the regime of the dictator Suharto. Watched by hundreds of people, the investigators dug up 12 sets of remains at one site and nine bodies at three other locations.
Mr Baharuddin Lopa, the team leader and secretary-general of the country's human rights commission, said the remains were incontestable proof of human rights violations.
