A few minutes later, when the clock on the wall ticked six o’clock, the main gate of the great hall opened wide and revealed a horrifying scene that shocked the entire humanity in the hall. The conspiracy had come to the open now, naked, ugly for the entire Dergue to see. Led by Captain Zeleke, some forty soldiers armed with machine guns stormed the hall in two files.
