i am. in a new jazz fascinated me ever since i was a teenager. it is stunning strange warm and manna sing all at the

same time. i moved here shortly after my wedding day sixteen years ago my husband and i had been a guitarist in a punk rock band and i was the singer. wonderful carefree days at an all grown up now and in search of a new adventure. into a house in a local neighborhood of jakarta indonesia had become our home. i was by dan a television reporter and andrei became my camera man. to gather we embarked on new careers as foreign correspondent. one event affected andrei and me more than any other it happened you know early years here and it continues to trouble me today. it is

a story that i need to revisit it is a journey that i need to make again sadly it is a journey that i can only make alone. i'm back in east timor a country that i came to many times in the late one nine hundred ninety s. on much more turbulent days. i have returned to retrace the steps of one particular battalion of the indonesian army as they retreated towards enemies in one thousand nine hundred nine. and two and one of the saddest days ever known. september twenty first one thousand nine hundred ninety four ever be axed on my mind. on that day at the town and seven for five murders my friend

dutch journalist sanna tunas. indonesia in faded east timor in one nine hundred seventy five leading to an occupation that was often violent and bloody. the pro independent guerrilla force fell until fought for freedom and it is believed that one quarter of the population died as a result. in one thousand nine hundred eighty change of indonesian president brought home. a new president habibie sought a solution to the continuing problems in east timor and they cleared a referendum on the future of the region. in my heart is the loss of. if. or brought us in says. does. not adjust his us after more than twenty years to get his us then. we should decide.

to stay with us or to separate as friends and build good leaper. it was a huge story that my husband andrei and i were keen to be covering. shortly before referendum day we went to a fun until camp in the jungle. it was an extraordinary experience especially to me to guerrilla commander. who shared his thoughts with us then thoughts that he still believes in today. as up i meant. by a contract rapid or mental muscle or some yes all or some past the settlement or offend in the court or on a dilute the no i don't know what appalled. he may know moment the grounds of in

the gutter on the scale as perso as investors in the the in the kill example are there. and they didn't lose the struggle the east timorese voted overwhelmingly for independence. things have become even more dangerous however in the run up to the vote the indonesian military and the crow illusion militias they have formed and become increasingly violent. they no longer considered us to be observer of us they found that journalists were on the side of the east timorese and it was so stuck in our minds that we became a talking to. me coming. here the boys. if is a good. thing. there. are right there out in osprey's. who are in the military denied involvement in the

violence then and as i am discovering they continue to do so today. is. that. they any. given movie got much out of it. are you that if you are young. my friend was also in delhi at the time working for the e.b.u. you been broadcasting union suddenly i see from the outside. ministry at a time. tried to sort of like go around town. and i was kind of like wondering what's really going on edge trying to trap us inside. the hotel

was besieged andrei and i were on the roof when we came on the fire. and i was in the lobby one equates militia man with a sword try to attack the journalist. we filed our last report very. often it back a bit here it's all about the case those of us asked and it's also awful of the feeling to have a good dad. the next morning we were forced to leave the indonesian military came to our town because on two trucks he drove us to the airport and. we were moved from one of the largest international stories at the time. we were devastated angry frustrated it was a horrible empty feeling for andrea only to deny the ability to cover the event that we all knew were in abbottabad we feared for the lives of many and it was almost no one left to tell. we were forced to

cover the story from a far back in shock after. gian and the e.b.u. meanwhile found a way to get journalists back to dili as soon as a strain in peacekeepers arrive word got out that the european broadcasting your new maybe you had charted an aircraft and they managed to get approvals to land an aircraft in dili. once the airport had been secured because we knew the wind was coming in we set up a table and a full sight of the mandarin oriental hotel we just showed up put their names and their contact details and pay for them out of this one way trip to east timor come to the mandarin oriental hotel poolside will be someone there to meet you the cost is that i think a thousand u.s. dollars for this one way trip you're not coming back you get on that aircraft you're getting off at the other end so it was that ships at all. even you would i

describe myself like i really like pay this much money just like ticket to hell one way ticket to hell and then the last of us showed up with his friend. start a conversation friendly. he struck me as a very friendly warm up kind of person i want to be all i want to eat that. ok sure. janice name. your boys from europe yeah they speak very fluent in bahasa. oh ok so. they were standard phones very friendly very. interactive and from what i remembered we just met there never met him before never knew him before and he just like. everyone clicked with sam he was that kind of man

young smart. he and i were part of a small group of dutch journalist based in jakarta friends who shared stories and travel around the country we loved so much time there was the financial times correspondent and was unlikely as me to become a war correspondent so quickly i need to understand more about the people who killed him. these are the remains of battalion seven four five the compound where they were based but also where they started their bloody retreat. people were very very much afraid of seven four five in the last pylos they know that these soldiers. were pretty violent. going to. be the. america.

this was also not the only camp they had many more in this in this little town basically this town was dominated by seven four five. the people here were always reminded of the indonesian presence because of this this battalion. you can actually see seven four five seven. for. find. it still here. they try to remove it but it didn't really work. the edible medical kit that was a big deal my dad and jan and documented so badly that oh but the one they own the one with the thing that's with us that was at indonesia i got it down at something else and they will listen to it that way at that and they're going to need. yacub though unlikely that they'll get on the ticket if you show them a goblin but on

a low caliber alum referendum at a cost mile and when they come by and of the moment of seeing your engine and their guide those are the last caliber alarms other than that but if i come i could just ask i've got an imbalance in the back of say more than one and i had to maintain a share. mamoun what i had then mimics i can lay a shop i am english air. on the morning of september nineteenth one thousand nine hundred ninety the talian seven four five departed los palos and embark on the trail of murder. as they began withdrawal they headed. towards the beach at. the departure point of the battalion most of the soldiers left east timor back to

indonesia right here. and the supply route for them kept their main supply. they didn't want anyone to have any profit from those supply so they destroyed everything. and it was a group of one hundred twenty members not allowed to go on the boats but they had to go back to indonesia and they had to bring back the vehicles so sixty trucks and thirty motorbikes. from here and one in fourteen destroy and kill everything you find on your way. to.

an italian members who hadn't set sail those charts which were turning to come for you to indonesia. in lao to for the night. they left early on the morning of september twentieth the orange glow of everything that had satellite filling this guy. their route was now to the west following the coastal road along the northern shore of east timor towards laga once there they came down for another night at one of their supply base. on the morning of september twenty first one thousand nine hundred nine. with our tickets bought at the man from g.e. on order the e.b.u. flight in jakarta eager to return to the east timor forced to leave but nervous and scared but what we would fight. for cites from the plane

confirmed all worst fears destruction on a scale you could not even have imagined you ready dos also one of the hardest stories would have to cover. at the same time as we had set off on a journey to help the soldiers of battalion seven four five ready themselves for day a departure from lag on a journey of a very different intent. what was to become a very dark day began here with a day that would affect so many families not only in east timor. having set their base alight with a talian departed towards daily and began a pattern of violence that would continue for the rest of the day but. it wasn't long before the battalion met their first victims that morning. within ten minutes

of leaving the base they came across two men on a motorcycle unfortunate enough to be on the same stretch of road at the same time it says two man were killed here by the indonesian military. twenty first. of so come september one thousand and one. and i know these two guys or two brothers their names were gus and. unbeknown to the battalion the actions were witnessed by seeing me up into a. moment and land at a stand for some. it does make. the qualities do but the bodies. and their less of them to give it because i don't know that then i think if you look. at their own battle isn't my and that doesn't stand. them develop a bad news headline in my head that most don't want to come i had

a bad think about him about that make them love me and i got in was in my business but then i'm sick and then bang my. dinner as a deal to be reminded doesn't. he need a mouth again the gonna have a dope legacy at the end. that are not want debbie out the get out amber one man said about dope less adult they said i have the as a family give it out on me. it will not get out on eleven out on on my socket and this is dog bear so i don't have it on us at the moment and out of a bit of a lot of big solid dome company in a field ghana. this late they are nemesis. that they're mad the name on it. isn't that. funny man. bitterly sad story was the first of many tragedies that occurred on september

twenty first one thousand nine hundred ninety. s. i continue to retracing the battalion's journey i met more and more people who had witnessed their violence and was she had with me story after story of grief and sorrow. just outside balko this man show me where his uncle was gunned down in the doorway of his own house now abandoned and overgrown. this family lost a daughter a young mother callously shot in both lax she bled to death in front of them on this spot holding in her arms her infant child. now teenage school will. retracing the steps of battalion seven four five was never going to be easy physically or emotionally and i'm finding it disturbing in every way and i know

there is more and worse to come. and there's still some way to go before i have to deal with how the battalion affected me. i reached the center of back out and like the battalion my straight. everyone at flag the mt town the beautiful market building at already been destroyed years before. i now work how to reach the fall until soldiers hiding in the mountains sacking with battalion seven four five was doing. in that carolyn saw as i'm sure it was common man does this sort of yours from the layout of the senate proceed with a fair. marsters gaza said in this three years. of to see events by convincing. i mean your farmers that there may not i gather it's president plays you know when

. he has yet. to come up to get. the oxy acetylene have. done it. but at one hundred eighty seven wanted a bishop on the clinton comment and blow up a check of the intimacy that a month ago about what. the spy did general some fellow soldiers could take it no longer. they hid in the land next to this bridge and it was here that the battalion met with the only resistance they were to face day there was a shoot out of our own to our between the indonesian soldiers and the fall until the fight us none of the indonesian soldiers died but four members of al until they got killed and then the indonesian battalion moved on and killed more people on the other side.

having survived a felon to ambush the battalion struck again just beyond the bridge. a young man with his friends unaware of the danger return to his village to collect supplies. his own just in time told me what happened. more shocking than i ever imagined. abbie being on the mountain man and through the lobby. out that show that i'm wanting to eat nothing i'm a medic at the room. and a good deal. about how the sunni should have been moving him at pin data. medica why would you assume when you can be tough to challenge the charge to like it to understand that a. lot of how to do something and not be.

was there any transport not the traditional kind anyway. we managed to fly girl of a cattle truck but i can remember sir standing at the front of the of the tip. with his head up above looking down the highway the australian peacekeepers that set up in one of the beach front row tells him in dili the ring didn't steal that made their headquarters in the main hotel which is called the tourist my hotel which is also on the beach we didn't want to get involved with the australian army we didn't want to be controlled in any particular way we wanted to. stay independent because we hadn't flown in with the australian forces we were prevented from entering into that protected hotel and instead walked down the beach from the promise about three hundred meters to where there was a nunnery an abandoned nunnery. andrea and i also took shelter in the town

from that day. this is the first time that our free turned in one thousand nine hundred nine and it's only partially familiar i've come back to independent east timor many times i have avoided the nunnery for fourteen years. i really very strongly remember how afraid we were when we were staying here that what we thought it would be a lot safer before we actually went to the lead and we experience when we actually got here it was very unpredictable very eerie. you know the gunshots fires we did we just didn't know we had we had no idea where we had to look out for. we thought that the indonesians would have left but many of them were still here. but there was no time for fear we were all here to work and that's what we did our story that day was right across the road from the convent where thousands were crammed together on the beach looking for safety going

out to interview them i saw this huge collection of. humanity on the beach and went to talk to the refugees and found this young refugee family headed by sweet young i'm cool and i try to saw. spoke some english and said well i'd like to use you as an interpreter but we need some transport so they are not there to. come in my city i see them with so family and their close to to come in some of them see the depth the more. saudi in my problem i'm with. it the more likely one by one or no he didn't want to go very far we didn't want to go and you are unsafe particular here so our first day in delhi. florindo aroud you have been driving journalists around delhi

on the back of his small motorcycle all day as he dropped one of them off at the turismo sander was next in line. at them was a way to get their beloved. in the band. and that's a record in the quote that early there were that is in a day that will have. a chorus everyone because there's a lot of. good in. that way dear to them oh they must have. that is our idea. i think set off earlier then florindo and sander john chip and i'm a plateau in central ramesses car with some way ahead on the same stretch of road. it would be to first meet a battalion. that's just beyond the city limits reading about off among us because. that was noise of motorbikes arriving came around the corner and

there were about thirty or forty. men on motorbikes along. similar. to the sort of them up to. one of the first scenes it it was they attacked my driver i want some of them marked i'm up something in. the last. bus. one of them just took his rifle and bashed his eye out with the rifle but. i just saw it. coming down his face like a. snake ready it was just like a break a neck just hanging down that on his cheek. to sleep through to those who spoke with what dog or there was suspicion very suspicious of him because he was with two western as i said. i'm in a car you could to get by but it's. goes down good luck it's.

my cross and i demoed with. we were ordered back into the vehicle and the driver with his eye still hanging out was ordered to drive the car down the hill. get a bag of mine essential a mobile they had said to my thank you mark good to spare my supper was a while when we would get me something. well up. to the motorbikes swept and stopped in front of us so we couldn't talk to them don't. we couldn't go any further. sell us out to. supper it doesn't look but it was all about money yes i was up to come on down below the dose of it i love boom boom medical i did want to be the democrat it was a lot of them are better luck on tuesday that there are thumbs up to be our best buddies so the only two. i said to chip and to to ramos i said.

we've got to get out over that. last malarkey to the last lotus opened up the. buttercup them up to the scummy there was a lot of good. wallace who moved those. to. go up monasteries with the the leg and i don't mean they came off to us short which you can really look behind me just kept going as fast as we could we could and looking for cover. so that it was a lot of luck to them let us. suck it you. want us to start the rules. but. we didn't know ramos is gone he had just an idea where it was safe used to be and. you know he's he's an east timorese in that time he might have grown eyes that he was safe was beyond he's an arms baby to westerners who

took this terrible. episode of. john and chip it through didn't i'm sure of what had happened to any connect to unsigned. italian in the meantime continue on its bloody route of destruction. and getting. that out they and i see the people as they do or. say i'm up this is that it says that that guy that what they thought it though and then what and it. growing up in samoa a leg up and things out that. ballot model if i was on the thing you got out and if you could get that first ballot but i got a lot of americans who didn't get it or they did it with the unit. to mark this more than half a day and i say it's a given but that if it isn't giving the. goodness a lot of troops

a lot of troops. an id or a get on the wrong. it's about the knitting the most of it in a low that they've said. i'm not going to look at every said you know we've been nice and there's nothing but a couple of legs model but it was a. little something but you needed the medical last week with. him but i mean. he has got a lot of money with them but that's a bit of american history and almost. had almost everything else with a look at him or. the little guy that the lunatic and a mustache that obama got out of the doubt it will. give him a. little different idea. that. made his way to to respond to tell everyone he could what had happened.

we heard that sound that was missing so it was very confusing. my husband and ray was looking for him next door in the tourist motel while i was still working i had to keep working because i had deadlines and so it was like really. messed up because we were also really worried about our own safety i mean not much was standing lots of building still burning you could hear gunshots stores. very very time there we erase situation here. didn't feel left very safe. that told night out i spent here with my friends with colleagues trying to make phone calls like really you know trying to get through to anyone who would have any news about and. early the following morning

on dylan was one of the first journalist to find her out of the convent. the reason guy came up to me sort of talking he said i know where there's this step forward like we take you there. so then we had this long. thirty thirty plus minute walk out to the kora. and then off the left hand side of the road to a small gully looked up almost a driveway was senator talks. one on the side it was new it was a very unpleasant you know you get used to seeing bodies in repose if you like almost with a sense of sort of calm. but i didn't get that often i didn't get that sense. i got a sense of reaching. you know. the only thing i could do major wests. his

family his friends. fellow journalists. i could hear people crying in the corner. very real moment for everyone. could just as easily be anybody else in the nunnery that night. as the pot of stew pot. it's cool. that. i've let. you all work and up here by your friends and they burst into the room and

then the first thing they said yes we found. and of course that you know it and it went into a whirlwind of events. we cried together what are the trends trying to grasp what had happened meanwhile painful gruesome things had to be done. and this body which had finally been recovered by those trailing peacekeepers needed to be identified. my husband andrei help with this task an experience that really traumatized him. john swain and chip pious spend a night with in metres of sanders body without realising had been assisted back to delhi by peacekeeping forces the question was. what i'm touring us and what happened to ana tatar. with the rising of the sun we heard that a journalist are being killed for a nearby my immediate reaction was that he'd been killed by the same group that

attacked us it just made perfect sense don't you marry a photographer. agreed to take me back in his motorbike to. where the whole incident happened that i was going to try and find. ramos we got back to where they attack happened and the old battle taxi was still there with his windows all bashed out. tires flat from buttholes. bargains arm. for the food what about multiple. at the mall a said to somebody and suddenly there's a rustling in the bushes and romas is running up and his eyes don't you know do the ok. you have to have three on a motorbike. and so he was in the middle biomes around him get him studying. we decided to take him to the district. and the

military hospital is set up at video. at that moment the command of the australian forces general cosgrove right i turn to my grabbed him and said to general you know this is what happened. out of my drivers had his eye bashed up and he needs to urgent medical care. and he will theorize it was some sort of way and he turned to his men and he said to get this but on the first flight to dollywood. in a strain the essentials received emergency surgery and a sight in his remaining i will say. as for my interpreter and i clatter. of course it was a devastating thing to happen and. not something new to us or. not something to use a journalist i want to have to go through. anyway. our

readers who made inquiries about what happened to him and no one could give any real explanation. but later i learned that he had to them being taken with a group of other prisoners and paraded. up the army base. being beaten up and that was the last anyone ever saw of him. i suspect that any plato like so many of us with ultimately taken to jack that not the capital city of indonesia but to a cliff south of delhi and then troll now. gleeful cynically named by the indonesians because the families of victims taken their toll that it was to jakarta and their loved ones had flats. i think this journey is for me. looking for some kind of closure and i'm not really sure closing what exactly. the idea when you are late but early on partly my luck to mark a spot. where your prosecutions are. underway at the

men's hockey table you're blind to much barnett's a great time of the messiah and upwards are you to the remaining go. i get up each day what i said before it will you could you know we got up to. police investigation shows that sandra was most probably still alive and the soldiers picked up his body and directed of the room. that brought him to a piece of scrap and behind the house in shock. the liberty in the back. by the time his body was found his face had been mutilated beyond recognition. probably by his murderous. be. by a by a muscle seven job or. open set it up like to do this at our last set of my.

daughter. so i think that it will stop a. young fella killing. a mummy my. guest must allow recall but i'll put up by this idea. a lot so i hung up a bit of muscle are we are. let's we're getting a side. so does mark the have you ever felt responsible for what happened in east timor. that is one of the always is say i told you many many know. this is over youse on the. lads made it up but i'm a jackal. and little girl for a record man she lives lost and the old now is all on the proceeds it's all of the four that. i always thought they're just going to chase us away to make us they want to make us scared they don't want any witnesses. to see you know the plan they

had to file and says they had planned on healing and they succeeded many journalists including me had to leave. and when we came back we thought you know it's over it's better it's safer. general we had to use eventually indicted by the special crimes unit in dealing with gross human rights violations but he never appeared in court. to be gittin to be taken so you're on behalf. of us probably just a bigger your own their own home into a dollar when you're going to be judged on the god of the state policy that state policy arguably should be done so you could when do comes to policy. look he may see everything. the world is not blind and get

away as that told you i've done my job show me the fact that they were instructed by i b b to kill. sean o'keefe. let me hide the past we look for in the future. and the future that we are on two aims for is becoming the president of indonesia in the twenty fourteen election. the former east timor guerrilla leader has become the president of his country and he leaves me with a very warm message. formularies they'll.

all be more. than a mere. stab of message for. the event in east timor one of the most traumatic events i experience not only as a journey journalist but as a person. and these events have led to a lot of other events in my life that are also traumatic so. being here of course has something to do with. it's. i always believe some kind of spirits are in birds. for some reason and now good to pass and.
