Victor survived, but his two friends were not so lucky. Thirty-seven years later, he is still trying to make sense of the events of July 23, 1983. Victor\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rRAp31mZG1A&amp;feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">two-hour long emotional testimony<\/a> shook the Seychelles islands, with people taking to social media to condemn the atrocities committed during the 15-year one-party era. As the Truth, Reconciliation and National Unity Commission (TRNUC) continues to hear testimonies about murders, disappearances and other alleged violations of human rights, more victims are coming forward to seek redress for atrocities.<\/p>\n<p>Victor and Sonny Elizabeth worked together at the Post Office and became friends. Soon after he left his job at the postal services, Victor bought a car and was approached by three soldiers, who asked him to be their driving instructor. Michael Hoffman was a friend of Elizabeth and knew the soldiers as well. \u201cDuring some of those driving classes, Elizabeth and Hoffman would accompany me, you know just for fun, a ride\u201d, recalls Victor.<\/p>\n<h3>\u201cOn our way, I heard talks about guns\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Until that day when what was supposed to be a simple errand to collect \u201csomething at Sans Soucis\u201d, a mainly forested sub-district bordering the two main districts of Bel Air and Port Glaud, turned into a nightmare. On July 23, 1983, Elizabeth asked Victor to drive him, Hoffman and the soldiers at around 7pm. \u201cHe would not divulge what \u2018the something\u2019 was at first. It was when we were on our way that I heard talks about guns. Sonny said Hoffman is going to collect some guns from [a guy called] Marengo. I didn\u2019t know whether it was one gun, 5 guns or 500 guns,\u201d recounted an emotional Victor. Jemmy Marengo was a former schoolmate of Victor, who had become an army intelligence officer.<\/p>\n<p>They meet Marengo at Sans Soucis, who gets into their vehicle to guide them. Victor says he was not alarmed, until his car was ambushed. \u201cMarengo told me to leave the main road and I remember going off road into a pathway when suddenly I came across a tree trunk - the size of my thigh - across the road. And out of nowhere, we were ordered to get out of the car, and we saw soldiers coming out of the bushes from either side of the car,\u201d recounts Victor. Everything then spiralled out of control, he told the commission.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Bryan Charles Victor testifies before the TRNUC in the Seychelles\" src=\"media\/Seychelles_TRNUC-Brian-Charles-Victor_Seychelles-Broadcasting-Corporation.jpg\" alt=\"Bryan Charles Victor testifies before the TRNUC in the Seychelles\" \/><figcaption>\"I strongly believe that he [the former President Albert Ren\u00e9] was the one who ordered the army personnel to kill my two friends and I\", Bryan Charles Victor told the TRNUC in the Seychelles on 13 January 2020. \u00a9 Seychelles Broadcasting Corporation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>\u201cLet him be, he will die eventually\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThe soldiers \u2013 between 15 and 20 \u2013 were armed with sticks, daggers, bayonets and AK47s and they started beating all three of us to death,\u201d says a tearful Victor. \u201cI knew karate, so I initially fought back, but they were many and they overpowered me. When I couldn\u2019t take it anymore, I gave up, broke down and started screaming for my mother as I knew I would never see her again. Their intention was to kill us,\u201d he adds. He lay still on the ground and couldn\u2019t see what happened to Elizabeth and Hoffman. \u201cI was hit with the bayonet in my back and on my head. At one point one of them said \u2018let him be, he will die eventually\u2019\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Their three bodies were loaded into his car, and driven towards Morne Blanc, Port Glaud on the western side of the main island Mahe. In a secluded area, the car was pushed into a ravine. \u201cThe car didn\u2019t roll over. It went down slowly and suddenly came to a halt against a small tree. I believe there was a god that stopped the car that night,\u201d Victor tells the commission. \u201cI was scared, bleeding. No sound was coming from Hoffman, but [Elizabeth] was moaning, \u2018mother, mother\u2019\u201d. Victor managed to climb onto the main road. He finally came across a house and was assisted by an elderly man who called the police. \u201cI told them about my two friends, but the two police officers said they would not go to the site in the middle of the night. I don\u2019t blame them. I understand. We were all scared in Seychelles at the time.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Recovery, threats and intimidation<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cI was hospitalized for eleven days and had regular hospital visits for weeks after that. I was traumatized and scared. I would never go to any place alone. I was always accompanied by a family member,\u201d recalls Victor. \u201cMy family and I were persecuted and intimidated. At night we would hear people walking outside our house. You know, the sound of army boots. I remember my uncle Eugene would come stay with us. He slept with two machetes in case we were attacked in the middle of the night\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy mother would fill up four huge thermos with hot water. This was our defence, in case the soldiers came for me.\u201d A police commissioner, James Pillay, questioned him during that time, Victor says. \u201cI told him about the beating, the army\u2019s involvement and specifically the role of Jemmy Marengo in the attack. But he said it could not have been Marengo as he had learned that he was on another island that day. He told me that I had made a mistake and I was probably drunk and could not remember what had happened to me that night,\u201d an angry Victor tells the commission.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"pull-left\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Jemmy Marengo testifies before the TRNUC in the Seychelles\" src=\"media\/Jemmy-Marengo_Seychelles-Broadcasting-Company.jpg\" alt=\"Jemmy Marengo testifies before the TRNUC in the Seychelles\" width=\"280\" height=\"280\" \/><figcaption>\"If we had not intercepted the three men that day, many more people would have died, including President Albert Ren\u00e9,\" said one of the perpetrators, Jemmy Marengo, in front of the Seychelles TRNUC on 14 October 2019. \u00a9 Seychelles Broadcasting Corporation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Marengo, the former intelligence officer, gave more details <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/SX9YE3Gd66E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">before the Commission<\/a> on October 14, 2019. To him, Hoffman was part of an assassination plot. He \u201cregrets what had happened\u201d, but \u201cif we had not intercepted the three men that day, many more people would have died, including President France Albert Rene\u201d. \u201cOne day Hoffman said (\u2026) that some soldiers had hidden guns in the bushes at l\u2019Exile army camp, at Sans Soucis, where I was based. And he needed my help to go through the main gate, which was guarded, to collect the guns. I knew that they wanted to assassinate president Rene,\u201d recalled Marengo. \u201cI facilitated their entrance and then I got out of the car and left. The next day I heard they were in an accident and that two of them died,\u201d said Marengo.<\/p>\n<h3>Exile, with the help of the American ambassador<\/h3>\n<p>In October 1983, three months after the attack, fearing for his life, Victor sought the help of the then American ambassador to Seychelles, David Fischer, to flee the country. \u201cMr Fischer said he would contact a friend of his, Ted Fletcher, who was working for the International Rescue Committee branch in Boston, USA. Everything was done secretly as I didn\u2019t want to tip off the authorities of my imminent departure,\u201d says Victor.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, there was a second attempt on his life on December 31, 1983. \u201cWe were at the end of year party. I noticed four soldiers, and one of them approached me with a dagger, but there was a scuffle and the other party-goers noticed what was happening. The four were eventually chased away. We slept at a friend\u2019s house that night. We were scared of going home.\u201d \u201cLess than two months later, everything had been sorted out for my trip. I didn\u2019t know where I was going but I knew that if I stayed in Seychelles I would die. I had no choice. So, in February 1984, I went into exile,\u201d recalls Victor. He would return to Seychelles for the first time in 1993, when the country became a multi-party democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlbert Rene [the former President] knew everything that was happening especially that night, and I strongly believe that he was the one who ordered the army personnel to kill my two friends and I,\u201d Victor claims, before a packed room including members his family and the American ambassador. Many points remain to be clarified. But Following Victor\u2019s testimony on January 13, the Seychelles Peoples Defence Forces announced that Captain Marengo had retired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sole survivor of a vicious attack perpetrated in 1983 by a group of army personnel, Bryan Charles Victor, took the stand for two hours on January 13, 2020, at the Seychelles Truth Commission, for an emotional testimony that shook the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":64,"featured_media":64189,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[542],"tags":[],"ji_location":[2459],"class_list":["post-43693","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-truth-commissions","ji_location-seychelles"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.3.1 (Yoast SEO v25.3.1) -
