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 Miljcvici is a makeshift cemetery dating from 1994 and located approximately 500 m north of a former Bosnian Serb Army barracks. On 19 May 1999 four exhumations were carried out by the Federation Commission on Missing Persons - Bosniak Side. These were marked graves in the western, Muslim part of the cemetery. Three of the decedents were allegedly relatives - a father, son, and uncle - allegedly murdered while in custody of the Bosnian Serb Army by one known individual who is being prosecuted for murder in Sarajevo. The fourth grave exhumed was that of a 78-year-old woman who had died after allegedly having been denied medical treatment while in the custody of the Bosnian Serb Army. A further goal of the exhumations of these individuals was to determine if there was any evidence of torture. The individuals were allegedly civilians. Place of Exhumation: Miljevići Date of Exhumation: 19-21 May 1999 Minimum Number of Exhumed Individuals: 004
