Early life
editHadisubeno was born on 11 February 1912, at a small city in Pacitan, Nglorok. He was the second of the three sons of Raden Mas Sosrowerdojo, who at the time of his birth served as wedana in Pacitan. His older brother was Sumadijo, while his younger brother was Sempu Mulyono and Sri Mulyo. Sumadijo died during his youth at Belgium, due to a failed operation.[1]
His older brother, Sumadijo, served as the police chief in Cirebon. Once a time, Sumadijo clashed with the resident of Cirebon at that time, van der Plas. Upon the incident, he asked for his resignation and continued to study in Belgium. He refused to study in the Netherlands due to lasting sentiment. Hadisubeno's younger brother, Mulyono, served as the head of the criminal regiment in the Jakarta police, while his youngest brother, Sri Mulyo, died during his youth.[2]
