Indonesia police shave punks to 'restore morals'
The authorities disagree. Banda Aceh's deputy mayor, Illiza Sa’aduddin Djamal, told the Jakarta Globe that punks disrupt local life and make public areas "unattractive" with their shabby clothes and poor personal hygiene.
Accusing the punks of immorality, drinking and drug use, Illiza said police would continue their campaign against punks "until they're all caught."
Aceh is the only province of Indonesia governed by Islamic Sharia law, which forbids "immodest" clothing, the unsupervised mixing of men and women, alcohol consumption and homosexuality. The state's punk-loving youth has complained of police harassment for months, reported the Associated Press .
The news of their enforced return to normality was greeted with anger and solidarity by their international comrades. On the PunkNews community site, NickVicious called on the detainees not to give in: "Wear your jeans, wear NO jeans, rock that f*cking hawk and be who you are;" while Adamusag wryly observed, "Things in Indonesia must be fantastic if this is their biggest worry."
