one morning in the spring of 1999,

gunshots rang out in a tiny village in Malaysia.

Once they stopped, a shopkeeper slowly opened his door to see what was going on.

He watched in confusion as a convoy of military vehicles rolled down the street,

filled with soldiers carrying rifles slung across their backs.

Then the soldiers stopped in front of a farm just down the road.

The owner of that farm came outside and met the soldiers at the door and then very solemnly this farm owner walked the soldiers around to the back of the property where there was this big thicket of fruit trees.

The shopkeeper who was watching this from a distance was so curious as to what they were doing

behind this farm that the shopkeeper stepped out onto the road and suddenly he had a clear view of behind this farm.

And what he saw was these soldiers taking up positions, raising their rifles,

and shooting at something just below these fruit trees.

And after the gunfire stopped, the shopkeeper began hearing all these terrible squeals and screams,

and then the air began to smell like blood.

Terrified, the shopkeeper turned around and ran back inside a shop,

hoping that whatever was going on here would be over soon.

However, the shopkeeper would be terribly wrong.
