Despite the fact that authorities have said the death of a nine-year-old boy in Indonesia had nothing to do with WWE®, local activists are still trying to fuel the fire by staging what is clearly seen as a contrived protest. In fact, AP posted a photo of a "protest" on-line.

Here are the facts as we know them:

The father of the boy claimed that three 15-year-old boys beat up his nine- year-old son in mid-October practicing wrestling moves they saw on TV.

Yet it took the father a week after the incident occurred before he sought medical care for his son. The boy died one month later from causes not yet identified.

The police noted an autopsy was forbidden by the child’s family for religious reasons. As a result the police have indicated in the media that because there is no permission to conduct the autopsy, they are seeking the child’s medical records from the hospital. The police are continuing their investigation into the actual cause.

WWE continues to monitor the situation.
