history

School burned down by pro-Indonesian militias in Wecian (2000)

In 1979 the East Timorese freedom fighter Vicente dos Reis was buried near the mountain Casa dos Morcegos near Dotik . He was wounded and bleeding to death in fighting against Indonesian soldiers .

In 1981 the inhabitants of Bubussuso , Caicassa and Fahinehan (Fatuberlio administrative office) were forcibly resettled by the Indonesian occupiers to Dotik. The new place Weberec was founded for them. The people were suspected of supplying the FALINTIL resistance fighters with food. Since the people of Fatuberlio were only used to their fertile fields as mountain dwellers, they had difficulties in the hot, swampy plains, which led to many deaths.

Thirty-six families from Dotik village were arbitrarily arrested by the Indonesians in 1998 to investigate the perpetrators of an attack on a nearby military base of the occupying forces on November 9th.
