The soldiers summoned the police officers and told them to “sort
him out”. Ms. Williams asked the security forces what they were going to do.
She said the police carried Fabian and Fernando “across the road” along with
Mark Williams, her brother. The soldiers went upstairs to speak to her father
and she heard them say “Daddy, everything o.k.” Ms. Williams said she went

Ms. Williams said that, peeping through a broken window from
inside her house, she saw the boys in the garden lying down. “Police were in my
yard and over the road”. She heard police tell the boys who were crying: “Shut
up, unno gwine ded today!” Ms. Williams went and told her father what she
witnessed. He was blind but he came downstairs. Ms. Williams then said –
“I hear Fernando cry out and I heard gunshots. Fernando
shout, “Mummy, Mummy, they kill Pooksie” (Fabian).
Shortly after, I heard Fernando shout, “Mummy, Mummy,
they gwine kill me”. I heard shots. I was hugging up Diane.
When I did not hear any more from Fernando, I looked
outside. We went upstairs and climbed on Daddy’s bed and
looked outside into the road. I could see clearly. There was
a big white truck. I saw police drag my son’s body and put
him on the truck. I did not see when they killed Fernando.”

frightened.
