The Jakarta Post, October 23, 2001 Lewakabessy brothers murdered while picking cloves JAKARTA (JP): Two brothers, Nyong and Fery Lewakabessy, died after being shot by unidentified gunmen at the Suli village forest in Salahtu district, Ambon island, Central Maluku regency on Sunday afternoon, a report said on Monday. "They might have died on Sunday afternoon, as a bloodstain on Nyong's body was dry when it was found at 2 a.m. (local time) on Monday," Jhon Salampessy, a relative of the victims, said, as quoted by Antara. The search began after the wives of both victims reported to members of their families and their relatives that the two had not returned home by Sunday evening. Salampessy said the body of Nyong, 31, with a gunshot wound to his head, was found lying next to a clove tree early on Monday morning. "The search continued and some 300 meters away from Nyong's body, the searchers found that of Fery, 26, with four gunshot wounds, at 8 a.m. on Monday," Salampessy said. He said Nyong, who is survived by a wife and four children, and Fery, who had a wife and child, decided to enter the forest to pick cloves after learning that cloves had repeatedly been stolen from them.
