notes: A force of between 80-100 uniformed soldiers believed to be a part of the Presidential Guard (Tiger Battalion) overran the upscale Terrain Hotel a residential complex for the staff of international organizations. Over a four-hour period, they beat and abused many of the residents, raped and gang-raped at least five international aid workers and an unknown number of staff working at the compound, and executed a Nuer employee of a non-governmental news organization in an ethnically targeted killing. The soldiers damaged every single room and looted the compound extensively, stealing over 25 vehicles. Later in October, eight people were accused of rape, eight others of looting and one of injuring a victim, most from the SPLA.
