Police News

This is a newspaper page from the Illustrated Police News featuring the headline: "An Accident on the Political Track." The illustration refers to the resignation of Minister Keuchenius after his budget was rejected—reportedly due to the rising costs of the Aceh War and issues surrounding opium smuggling. However, it’s widely believed that the main reason behind his downfall was public disapproval of his overtly religious stance, which strongly influenced his political decisions.
