history

In 1999, pro-Indonesian militias ( Wanra ) tried to use force to influence the mood ahead of the August 30 independence referendum . One of the most feared Wanra in East Timor, the Besi Merah Putih (BMP), comes from the village of Maubara . They were primarily forcibly recruited in the Maubaras region and also had their headquarters here. Many people fled for fear of the forced recruitment. The BMP was already active from January 1999. She committed hundreds of crimes before the referendum and after the independence decision was announced. Maubaralissa, Lissadila and Vatuvou became ghost towns . Its residents fled to Sare ( Ermera municipality ). Up to 6000 refugees gathered there alone and stayed until the INTERFET arrived in September 1999.

On January 6, 2007, three women in Maubaralissa were accused of being witches. The women, aged 25, 50 and 70, were murdered and their houses set on fire. Three suspects were arrested by UN police. It was the first case of its kind in the predominantly Catholic East Timor.
