RGE/APRIL has been caught telling its customers it has support from governments and NGOs at the exact same time its bulldozers are out trashing Indonesia’s rainforests and peatlands.

Earlier this week, hundreds of Indigenous villagers from communities in North Sumatra risked life and limb by standing between their forest home and the logging machinery of TPL, a company affiliated with paper giant APRIL. Response: Arrested villagers
Your strong belief in my innocence and your support helped me tremendously to survive the police custody, my illness, trial and imprisonment. But most of all it helped me to survive the cruel intimidations inflicted by APRIL/RAPP personnel.
Life in Indonesian prison is hard to imagine – but I was there the only white person and the only one with higher education amongst 1300 other prisoners, and according to our lawyers 50% of them being innocent. I have learnt that the law system in Indonesia is a business and has nothing to do with justice – simply put; the one who has money wins.
