Was a fish really arrested in Indonesia?

Did you hear the one about the fish in Indonesia that got arrested for displaying a hammer and sickle on its head? Not really - it was a spoof. But the Facebook story posted by photoshop artist Agan Harahap highlights the continuing tension in the country in addressing the 1965-6 communist purges. Eric Sasona is a contributor to 麻豆社 Indonesian, and explains why the story has touched a nerve.
