"The government forces had surrounded the camp and in an effort to clear the locals out had closed in very tight ranks, forced the people out of their homes basically denying them water, food and shelter in order to get them out. The locals didn't want to do that. They had fears about returning to their homes where they had lived in previously because returning there often there'd be squatters there, they'd be accused of murder and stoned."
