VOC officials executed dozens of Bandanese orang kaya after coercive interrogations and a summary proceeding. Scholarly accounts commonly identify 44 people, while figures and descriptions vary across sources. The killings removed community leaders during the conquest; subsequent deportations, enslavement, flight, and deaths from violence and starvation devastated Bandanese society. Historians and descendants use the term genocide for this campaign, which is discussed in the research report.
