Peter Riley#Marsinah worked at Catur Putra Surya, watch manufacturer in #Porong, East Java. In 1993, she helped organize a protest demanding wage increases. While the protest was initially successful, Marsinah disappeared shortly afterward. Her body was found three days later in a forest in #Nganjuk, showing signs of torture.
