As previously reported, a clash between the Nanggala Kopassus Task Force and the Amole Task Force (Brimob) occurred in Tembagapura, Timika, on Saturday, November 27. The clashes are said to have been triggered because the price of cigarettes was too expensive.

The clash began when six members of the Amole Task Force were selling cigarettes at the RCTU Ridge Camp Mile 72 Post. Then, 20 members of the Nanggala Kopassus Task Force came to buy the cigarettes. However, dozens of Kopasus members protested because the price of cigarettes sold was too expensive.
