different cultures have different values

"We have seen that when we have an incident in the conduct of our operations, when we killed an innocent civilian, based on their ethic, their values, their culture, they would seek revenge," Lieutenant-General Ricardo Sanchez was quoted as telling The Times newspaper in London.

Coalition forces were seeking "to ensure that when a mistake has been made and when we have inadvertently wound up killing someone that we go and do the right thing culturally to take care of those families." The Times' report did not elaborate on those steps.
I wonder if 'take care of' means money, an apology, or just returning the body of your murdered loved one. Quote from iol.co.za
