JAKARTA - Kostrad Commander Lt. Gen. Dudung Abdurachman finally responded to the statement of former TNI Commander General TNI (Ret.) Gatot Nurmantyo about the existence of a number of dioramas of the G30S/PKI incident at the Darma Bhakti Kostrad Museum.
Previously, Gatot said that some of the dioramas in the Makostrad were removed. The statues are the Second President of the Republic of Indonesia Suharto, the statue of Lieutenant General TNI Sarwo Edhie Wibowo, and General AH Nasution. Gatot made this statement during a webinar discussion with the theme: TNI vs PKI, which was held by Insan Cita, Sunday, September 26.
Lieutenant General Dudung admitted that the statues of the three great figures of the republic were in the Darma Bhakti Kostrad Museum. The statue was made when Kostrad was still led by Lt. Gen. Azmyn Yusri Nasution for the duration of 2011-2012.
"Now the statue was taken by the initiator, Lt. Gen. (Ret.) AY Nasution, who asked me for permission as the current Commander of Kostrad. So, I cannot refuse the request in question," said Dudung in his written statement, Tuesday, September 28.
The former Pangdam Jaya clearly disagreed with Gatot's statement that the withdrawal of the three statues concluded that the TNI had forgotten the historical events of the G30S/PKI rebellion in 1965. Lt. Gen. Dudung and Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Azmyn Yusri Nasution will never be able to forget the killing of senior generals of the Indonesian Army. and Captain Pierre Tendean.
"That's not true at all," he continued.

Once again, Lieutenant General Dudung again denied Gatot's suspicions that the Indonesian Army had been infiltrated by the PKI.
"That's a heinous accusation against us. TNI General (Ret.) Gatot Nurmantyo as our senior in the TNI should have clarified first and could have asked us directly, as the Kostrad Commander," he replied.
