Teks asli
Killed after being shot by soldiers in civilian clothing and uniformed soldiers. Two of the soldiers in civilian clothing had approached his house after midnight; he and his two brothers, suspecting thieves, went out to meet them armed with a knife and a club. The soldiers did not identify themselves and fired initially at one of his brothers. When he and his other brother responded by trying to attack the soldiers, they fired at them, too. Uniformed soldiers who arrived at the scene shot him again while he was lying injured on the ground. He died of his wounds six days later.
