HIM:
  1. Radio Ethiopia announced the burial of the Emperor without any funeral service, and the place of burial was not specified. Since that day the name of the Emperor, who held the reins of power for almost 60 years, was gone forever. The Emperor himself was suffocated and his body thrown in a sewage... From Chapter 1975 @ http://afronord.tripod.com/him/1975.html

  2. To my children the Christians of Ethiopia and to the entire Ethiopian people! Yesterday, December 13, at about 10 in the evening the Imperial Guard soldiers who were entrusted with the safety and welfare of the Royal Family committed crimes of treachery against their country. They were led by a handful of officers who undermined their faithfulness and violated their oaths of loyalty... The army, the air force and the police force have not participated in this conspiracy. Therefore I admonish you not to waver in your loyalty! To keep your words of promise and to serve only the Emperor! Do not listen to the traitors! I adjure you not to Follow them in accordance with the authority given to me. Abune Basilios, Patriarch [from HIM chapter 1960 @ http://afronord.tripod.com/him/1960.html]
