Description
Summary:Forensic report on individual and mass grave exhumations in Bosnia and Hercegovina created during the Forensic Assistance Project (FAP). The report was authored by: Boaz, Noel On 5 May 1999 the Republika Srpska Commission on Tracing Prisoners and Missing Persons investigated two riverside locations in search of a mass grave. Twenty civilians were reportedly killed in 1992 and buried in this area of metropolitan Sarajevo. The two sites were investigated by backhoe trenches. No evidence of clandestine burials or mass graves were found in either case, although there is still circumstantial and geomorphological evidence, corroborated by witness reports, that indicate that Dariva 1 should be re-investigated. Place of Exhumation: Dariva Date of Exhumation: 5 May 1999 Minimum Number of Exhumed Individuals: 000
