Accused as communists, Aileen's father, a dentist, and her mother, a successful surgeon, were dragged off from their posh house in an exclusive subdivision one night by armed men identifying themselves as members of the 76th infantry brigade and stuffed into a van. They were then taken to the nearest military camp and tortured for days. They were told by the military to confess their alleged involvement with the rebels.
Her parents' bodies were found a week later in a shallow creek just beside their house. Their bodies were naked and filled with bruises in the chest arms and legs.
When interviewed, neighbours only said that they did not have any involvement with Aileen's family whatsoever. During the funeral, a military jeep was seen regularly passing by the house.
While buying candles for her parents' funeral, Aileen was reportedly snatched by unknown people inside a black van. She was not seen for a month. when she returned, neighbours commented that she was not wearing the dress she was wearing when she disappeared. She was found wandering aimlessly in a street several kilometers away from her family's house.
Unable to speak, the neighborhood decided that a family should take her in and the people would contribute their time in taking care of her. After several days of silence, she finally told them to let her go back inside her house. She did not tell them of anything that happened while she was away.
Aileen allegedly hanged herself in their house that night. Autopsy revealed that she was pregnant.
