The loss of relatives under the Khmer Rouge regime during the rebellion Prior to the Khmer Rouge’s victory day of April 17, 1975, my family consisted of my wife, Cho Imnah, my first son, Slaiman Mousa, my second daughter, Slaiman Amboroet, my third son, Slaiman Min, my fourth daughter, Slaiman Sanahh, and myself. We lived together in village 5, Svay Khleang commune, Krauch Chmar district, Kampong Cham province. Four or five months after Phnom Penh evacuees arrived in the village, the Cham rebellion broke out, led by the Cham-Muslims, who lived in the village. Prior to the rebellion, unknown Khmer Rouge soldiers had been arresting wealthy Cham-Muslims, and religious leaders, such as Kim and Tuon, and killing them day after day. At the time, the villagers and I were convinced, that the Khmer Rouge was killing these people, because no one was returning. At first, the Khmer Rouge arrested six people at a time. However, later on, the number of Cham-Muslims arrested kept rising continuously, until the day of the rebellion. I heard that some Cham-Muslims were transported to and detained at a prison in the Krauch Chmar district. I recall some of the Cham-Muslims arrested were: Kol Phin, a wealthy man; Tam, Tuoon; Ly Mousa, religious leader; and others whose names I forget. Because more and more Cham-Muslim people were being arrested every day, the Cham-Muslims grabbed their swords and rebelled against the Khmer Rouge soldiers. Other specific people, the Khmer Rouge soldiers arrested, were Him Sann, my older brother, Him Matt, my younger brother, and the commune chief under the Lon Nol regime. The soldiers held them at gunpoint, and took them away. This incident also took place before the rebellion. I did not witness the incident, nor do I know how or why the soldiers killed them. I learned about the incident from my sister-in-law, Sen Sreymah, who now lives in this village. I knew that the Khmer Rouge soldiers had arrested my brothers, but I did not know who ordered them to do so. I think my brothers were killed right away. One day, aware in advance that the Khmer Rouge soldiers planned to arrest a hundred and twenty Cham-Muslims, we gathered our forces and rebelled [against the Khmer Rouge], in order to fight for freedom and our religion. At the time, my father, my two sons, and I held swords and went to guard our village. We stationed ourselves at different positions. Then the fighting broke out and lasted for one whole day; from six or seven a.m. to six or seven the next day. We had nothing, but knives and swords to fight against the Khmer Rouge soldiers, who were all armed with guns, and had surrounded our village. At the time, lots of our people were killed, while only one Khmer Rouge soldier was executed. During the whole day of the rebellion, my father and two sons disappeared. As soon as the rebellion was over, my family escaped from the village. We did so because we were afraid of being killed by the Khmer Rouge. There were many other Cham-Muslim families who escaped the village with my family, but I do not recall their names. I think my father and sons were killed during the rebellion, because I was stationed in the middle of the village at the time, while they grabbed swords and knives to take up stations at different positions. I think the Khmer Rouge soldiers, sent to suppress the rebellion, killed my father and my sons. However, I do not recognize their faces or know the soldiers’ names. Moreover, I do not know who is responsible for the death of my father, sons, and relatives. Part C: Harm Because of the Khmer Rouge, I lost many relatives and property, such as cows, a boat, and a cart. I have always thought of my family and relatives and wondered how they were killed. If they had not been killed, we would have lived together happily. Whenever, I think of them, I feel unwell and am unable to sleep. I have never gone to the hospital or used any medications at all. |
