Each victim had been investigating village affairs-land deals, agricultural subsidies, environmental concerns. Each death occurred during harvest season. Each was thoroughly investigated, yet somehow always concluded as accidental.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNow Helena is asking the same questions those victims once did.
