history

Refugees in East Timor after the 2007 general election

On the road to Baucau, the Japanese tunnels , the so-called seven caves ( Gua Tuju , Fatuk Kuak Hitu ), remind of the occupation of Timor during the Second World War . The Japanese stored ammunition and equipment here.

In 1975 Indonesia began the occupation of East Timor. In December, Battalion 330 of the Indonesian Army crossed Venilale on the way to Viqueque. Local leaders of the FRETILIN resistance movement then arbitrarily arrested, beat and killed supporters of the União Democrática Timorense UDT and APODETI because these parties were cooperating with the Indonesians. Between February 1 and 12, 1976, a total of nine executions were ordered by FRETILIN leaders. Six of the victims were from families. Two of the commanders believed to be responsible for the murders, Januario Ximenes and Julio da Silva , were later murdered by FRETILIN fighters who were relatives of the victims.

In the west of the city of Venilale there was an Indonesian camp for East Timorese at the end of 1979, who were to be relocated by the occupiers for better control.

After the results of the parliamentary elections in East Timor were announced in 2007 , riots broke out in the Sucos Bado-Ho'o, Fatulia, Uailaha and Uatu Haco. Around 1000 people had to flee to the mountains. 50 houses were burned down.
