E/CN.4/1991/56 page 99 (c) Before being brought to trial, Suyadi had been summoned by the local authorities and warned that his activities were in violation of Government Decree No. 129/JA/12/76. However, the man did not heed the warning and continued his activities which were disruptive and which caused unrest among the local villagers. (d) Following the trial, Suyadi was found guilty of violating article 169, para. 3, of the Indonesian Penal Code and was sentenced by the Court of Wonogiri to 3 years and 6 months of prison, which was later commuted by the High Court of Semarang to 2 years and 6 months. (e) Sukasmin, who assisted Suyadi in forming an organization of the banned religion was sentenced by the Court of Wonogiri to 2 years of prison which was commuted by the High Court of Semarang to one year and 6 months. (f) During the proceeding of their trials, Suyadi and Sukasmin were given full legal rights in accordance with the existing laws and regulations. (g) From the above clarification, it is clear that the two men were sentenced not because of their memberships in the Jehovah Witness sect, but rather because of their disruptive activities. In this respect, it should be underlined that the Government of Indonesia often tolerates private practice of banned religions provided it does not cause social unrest. Association of Santo Antonio (a) With regard to the "Association of Santo Antonio" or "St. Anthony Foundation", this organization was founded in 1963 in East Timor and professed to be a religious body. It was however involved inter alia in questionable activities such as curing the sick by practising superstition, occultism, sorcery and witchcraft. Shortly after its inception it was banned by the Roman Catholic Church because its beliefs stood in direct contradiction to those taught and adhered to by the Church. (b) Members of the clergy, including Archbishop Belo, have denounced this organization, saying that this organizations's members "practise rites repudiated by God or in forms rejected or disapproved of by the Church". Members of this organization have, moreover, been engaged in various conspiracies to incite security disturbances during the visit of the President to East Timor in November 1988. (c) In the light of the aforementioned clarifications, it is clear that religion has been used as a pretext by members of this organization for their own purposes to produce social unrest."
