The soldiers in a while Hilux van with their commandant named Captain Sene stormed the residence and arrested one Brother who told them it was restricted residential area, not passage of vehicles.
Having released the Brother, the Captain Sene shot the three Brothers at close range and left the area.
The soldiers in another Hilux van, Operation Yaki, took strategic positions at the roundabout leading to the Markaz.
The writer of this story met the soldiers and demanded what lead to the shooting but they said nothing happened.
When I demanded to speak with their commander, they said, “You cannot speak with anyone”.
I told them that I was going to write what I saw, one of the soldiers said: “Go and write anything you want”.
