Account in du Croo’s Generaal Swart (1943)
From G. F. P. Gosenson
The attack was, unlike most incidents of those years, genuinely political: the investigation led by H. J. Schmidt brought to light that the notorious Tgk. Poeti’ had organised it through a krani named Hamit, intending to make resistance in Seunagan break out again. Tgk. Poeti’ was arrested and banished; “order was not disturbed.”
From Tgk. Poeti’
“The investigation conducted by Schmidt brought to light that the notorious Tgk. Poeti’, through the agency of a certain clerk Hamit, had set the raid on foot with the intention of causing the resistance in Seunagan to break out again. Tgk. Poeti’ was arrested and banished; order was not disturbed.”
