THE NOURA VAN KEMMERS

Back to the house

"Let's come with me..." Sudarman led me to the side door. Sure enough, the sound of footsteps and shouts were heard again from the front yard. Darman asked me to hide. We both squat behind a tree. The men seemed to be combing through every room. I'm so scared.

"We finally got out. Sudarman took me to the small river across the house. He said, for a while I had to hide first in a small hut on the edge of the river. It's about 700 yards from my house. That's the place I used to go fishing."

"According to Sudarman's information, Johans Alois was a ruthless and greedy landlord. From a long time ago, he did have a grudge against my grandfather. He's also a Herverman officer just like my grandfather. After his tenure at Herverman was completed, Grandfather gained a land division in the Tjibinung (Cibinong) region. Slowly, Grandpa began to build small plantations, he also got a job offer in the Railway company."

"The corruption of Johans Alois was known to Grandfather. Johans embezzled land everywhere, until his leadership at the time found out and dismissed Johans. Not only that, all his assets were confiscated and he was thrown in jail."

"Johans accuses the grandfather of reporting his crimes. After he was taken prisoner, he wanted to avenge him. But baby, my grandfather's back in Harlingen."

"He thought that the land Grandfather owned in Tjibinung was his own land that had been confiscated. And he intends to take it back."

"Over and again he terrorized and came to Papa on the plantation. Forcing Papa to hand over the land letter. But Papa didn't want to, until he actually came and kidnapped my whole family."

"Sudarman has been reporting back and forth to Veld Politie (field police) until the last news I heard, the police have been conducting a search for my family."

"Nearly three days I was in hiding. My condition is getting shabby. I didn't shower and change clothes for days. According to Sudarman's information, Johans' men are still spreading around my house. They went back and forth several times to the house. I don't know what the purpose is? looking for the land letter or looking for my whereabouts? I'm really scared."

"One day I really wasn't strong anymore. It's been almost two days now, Sudarman hasn't come to the shack. I don't know what happened to him? my stomach is hungry. I finally decided to go back home."

"Hope the situation is safe. I was walking. It was late afternoon. My head is dizzy and my body has a fever. I want to get to my house quickly."

"As soon as we got home. I immediately headed to this place" Noura pointed at this back shed. I wish there were Nimah and Sadeli in the pavilion. Call 'em. They came out and were very surprised to see me."

"I told Nimah, I'm not strong anymore. I'm hungry and I want to take a shower. My body is also feverish and dizzy."

"Nimah asked me to immediately hide again. He said Johans' men went back and forth to my house. They intend to search for the land letter. They're very slippery and good at tricking the police into monitoring the house."

Johans is notoriously cruel and ruthless. Nimah and Sadeli had intended to return to their home in Tjinere (Cinere) for a while, but they were worried about me."

"Sudarman has not come here three days ago" they said. Usually he comes to check the situation of the house from a distance."

" Aided by Nimah and Sadeli, I decided to enter the house. The conditions in the house are very chaotic. All the furniture and the files in the closet are ripped apart."

"When I remember them. The faces were terrified and also the cries of Mama, Aunt Alida, Sofia, Marie and George were also Benjamin. And also the faces of Papa and Omku who were hit and held by a gun."

"I immediately headed to the bathroom to clean my body that had been untouched for days with water and soap. After I shower and change my clothes, I eat. It was so good, after so many days in the hut I just ate a potluck."

"In the hut, I didn't dare go out because it was raining almost every day. Darman also forbade me from getting out of the hut. He went in the morning to the plantation and came back in the late afternoon to bring me some food. But I don't know why it's been two days that she hasn't come."

Seriate.

Remarks :

During the Dutch East Indies there were various forms of police, such as veld politie (field police), stands politie (city police), culture politie (agricultural police), bestuurs politie (pampong police praja), and, and other.

At that time a distinction was applied to the Dutch and indigenous peoples.

Indigenous people are not allowed to serve as hood agents (bintara), inspector van politie, and commisaris van politie. For the natives, during their time as police agents were created positions such as police mantri, assistant wedana, and police wedana.

The modern Dutch East Indies police force formed between 1897-1920 was the forerunner of the formation of the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia today.
