After landing in the remote area of Nduga, Mehrtens (pictured in denim jacket alongside heavily armed rebels) was arrested by the West Papua National Liberation Army (TPNPB). On Wednesday, a TPNPB spokesperson shared photographs and videos of Mehrtens, some with rifles and bows. Mehrtens was heard that his captors begged for the Indonesian military's removal from Papua, or else he would be detained for life. The rebels, on the other hand, have said they would execute the pilot if no rescue attempts are made.
