We investigate the chilling questions surrounding the decision to ambush a family with no known link to the Taliban. "For what sin did they kill him and riddle his body with bullet holes?" the sister of a victim cries; "see what they did to my sweet brother." We track down the survivors of that fateful night in February 2009 and hear first hand their account of what happened. Bullet-ridden walls and the wounds left on survivors, many of them children, attest to a violent ambush which the family claim was unprovoked and unjust. A brief investigation on the Australians part would have proven the family s innocence. "Just because someone tells you He s a Talib , would you barge into his house at night, kill six people and injure four for no reason?" demands a victim. Sluggish response from the Australian Forces further fuels international speculation, as the family s questions are met with silence.
