For the ones with a firm stomach and interested in this "minor" war, click on the folowing link.

If it is nog ethical to put this link on this forum, I apologize for that, and ask the forumleaders to delete this, but it is the reality.

At least the previous owner moved on quickly.

Not like some of the minor criminals and petty thieves who were burnt alive by mobs in Central Jawa during the recent civil disturbances.

Steal a bird cage, or a packet of cigarettes, fail to return a motorbike on time---you were just as likely to get doused with kerosene or petrol and burnt alive.

Things get pretty close to the edge in some places at some times.
