Judges hearing the case against Victor Yeimo, a Papuan activist accused of treason, have ordered the prosecution to prioritise the health of the defendant. While Yeimo’s lawyers had been arguing that he should be treated at the hospital, the prosecutors refused. The judges ultimately ordered that Yeimo should be taken to the hospital for intensive treatment due to his poor state of health. Yeimo’s trial hearings were also postponed after he was unable to attend because of his health issues. On Friday, Yeimo was taken to the Jayapura public hospital for examination and treatment.
