Benjareb tribe vs 25 European soldiers and policemen lead by

Governor Captain James Stirling
15-20 Aboriginal men and 30-40 women and children died.

Motivated by earlier attacks on white settlers by the Binjareb tribe.

Governor Stirling wanted to affirm his authority and power over the Aboriginals.
It was a planned attack and carried out by soldiers, so it was perfectly legal to the law.
