Nurdin bin Ismail Amat (born 10 August 1979), better known as Din Minimi, is a former militant of Free Aceh Movement who led an armed band based in Aceh during the 2010s.
Born in East Aceh, he joined the separatist movement in 1997. Following the peace process in Aceh, Minimi spent some time working various jobs before leading a band of armed criminals, disillusioned by the new Acehnese provincial government. In October 2014, he openly declared his stance, and, following the deaths of two Indonesian Army personnel, engaged in conflict with both the Indonesian Police and Army.
In late 2015, Minimi agreed to surrender to the central government in exchange for an amnesty. The granting of the amnesty produced some controversy, and as of 2018, the amnesty has not been formally granted.
