Ronnie Brunswijk (born March 7, 1961) is a Surinamese ex-rebel leader, politician, and business man. After having been the personal body guard of Desi Bouterse in the early 1980s, he turned against him by forming the Surinamese Liberation Army, better known as the Jungle Commando, which fought against soldiers of Bouterse in the Suriname Guerrilla War "to free Suriname from the military dictatorship". On 29 November 1986 the Surinamese army went to the village of Brunswijk and killed at least 39 villagers, mostly women and children.
