"It is estimated that the victims reached up to 2000 people more," he said as one of the information holders of this event.

The number of victims that fell on the day of the event is evident from the many human skeletons found in many places in the town of Tebing Tinggi. Even a few years after the events of December 13, 1945, in some places found many human skeletons that are civilians of the city of Tebing Tinggi who became victims of such atrocities.
