Overview
On Monday, May 23, 1977, South Moluccan youths hijacked a passenger train near the village of De Punt. At the same moment, another group held 105 children and 5 teachers from the primary school in Bovensmilde hostage. Images of the children shouting 'Van Agt, we want to live' went around the world. After a few days, the Moluccans released the children, but the teachers had to stay behind. What followed was a nail-biting game of cat and mouse that would last for more than two weeks.
