[Announcer] Radovan Pejic, spokesman of the [Bosnian] Serb Republic [RS] Police director, has announced today that a report against 1,743 mujahidin, members of the Al-Mujahid Unit, identified as the perpetrators of certain crimes during the war in Bosnia-Hercegovina, will soon be filed. He pointed out that the RS Interior Ministry had sent to the prosecutor's offices two new reports about war crimes against Serbs committed in the areas of Sarajevo and Capljina. Another 106 names will today be added to the list of Serbs killed in Sarajevo. Bojana Gligorevic has prepared a report about that:

[Reporter] Pejic pointed out that the Trebinje Public Security Centre had supplemented the report on the war crime committed by 27 identified persons suspected of, together with 42 persons reported before, taking part in the attacks on Serb civilians in the Capljina area in 1992.
[Pejic] The recently reported suspects, from April to August 1992, directly participated in an intentional and systematic attack on Serb civilians on the territory of Capljina municipality, where they unlawfully arrested Serb civilians and imprisoned them in the Dretelj camp and camps on the territory of the Republic of Croatia, which resulted in serious consequences: murder, imprisonment, physical and mental abuse, torture, mutilation, exile, rape, plunder, inhumane and cruel treatment, and so on.
[Reporter] Talking about the investigation into the suffering of Serbs in Sarajevo, Pejic pointed out that it was expected that the investigation would show that the number of Serb casualties ranged from 5,000 to 8,000. So far, 519 reports against 4,000 identified perpetrators have been filed for the murder of 4,000, wounding of 1,000 and rape of 165 Serbs.
Asked whether terrorist training camps exist in Bosnia-Hercegovina, Pejic said that there were no such camps on the territory of the RS and that he had no authority to give such information concerning the territory of the Bosnia-Hercegovina Federation. |
