Special Report Transcript Episode 18, Section 5, Time 29:31

Before we could reach any further there were a Kabasa group and some soldiers and they started shooting at us. As I was shot at I did not feel anything where I was injured. I only felt something cold because I was shot by bullets. // No, there were rumours that the Kabasa group did kill my brother, together with the police. The way in which he was wounded he was even shot while he was already dead. The stomach was totally destroyed with many holes of wounds. And this person wanted to make sure that he’s dead. They kicked him even if he was dead, they continued kicking him.
