TESTIMONY_GIVER:
  No, what happened was at the time that we were attacked my parents were all by themselves.  That is my mother as well as my son.  We had run away by that time and when my daughter-in-law had gone to her place to phone the police, she went there before she came to us.  She went to her place to report to the police.  When I got to the police station and told them what had happened they said the van had gone there and they turned away because the house was dark.  It's not true, because we had electricity at my place and the road is quite clear.
