Former rebel commander Muharram once led 3,000 men who spent decades fighting Indonesia's army in separatist Aceh.

But he is now a politician after the legacy of a devastating tsunami two decades ago brought peace.

Heartbroken that the body of Mazen al-Hamada has been discovered following his disappearance in Syria. Mazen had told his harrowing story of torture in cities around the world in the hopes of changing policy.

I'll never forget meeting him. I pray we'll continue his journey.
