>>From April 6, 1992, till May 15, 1992, I was detained in several detention
>camps in the territory of the former Republic of Croatia and Bosnia and
>Herzegovina. On April 6, 1992, at 1 p.m., the Croatian forces entered
Kupres
>where we, civilians were. I was at home. They broke in houses with tanks
and
>other armaments and their soldiers brought us all in one house. At the
>beginning we were 14. They took off our clothes there, and we were left in
>underwear, and barefoot. One among us, who was wearing a military uniform,
>was killed on the spot. He was slaughtered in front of us. His name was
Lazo
>KONTIC, he was from Kupres. Among the perpetrators who also took part in
his
>slaughtering, there was Zoran RADIC, called ZEKO, a Croat from Kupres. He
>also beat us. He was born at the village of Otinovci, municipality of
>Kupres. He was in charge and it was him who ordered the slaughtering of
>Kontic. Actually, he ordered that Kontic "be liquidated". I heard it with
my
>ears and saw it with my eyes.
>
>After they took off our clothes, they ordered us to stand in front of the
>tank as a shield. They ordered us to do it and threatened us with their
>weapons. We were flanking the tank on both sides and were walking in front
>of it as well as a shield. Among those who gave instructions as to the
>direction of the tank and issued orders to us was Zoran TURALIJA, resident
>of Kupres, a policeman in mufti, Boro ZRNO, also from Kupres, a high-school
>teacher and Jure ZRNO, a teacher as well.I was told that before Kupres, the
>person in command of the tank had been the commander of the so-called
Yellow
>Ants, Filipovic, while Turalija took over in Kupres, since he knew the area
>well.
>
>As I was walking by the tank, I saw that Spiro BOSNIC, PAVLOVIC, called
>Lola, I can't remember his first name, Todor DRAGOLJEVIC, Nedeljko
JARCEVIC,
>Ciro KONTIC, all Kupres citizens and civilians, were running from their
>respective homes towards the city center and were shot down. I do not know
>who exactly killed them. The infantry probably did it; they had arrived for
>cleansing purposes.
>
>We then arrived to the house of Petar SPREMO, from Kupres. There, in front
>of his house, a Croatian soldier, member of the Croatian Defence Council
>(HVO), was killed, I don't know who exactly killed him. Stevo LUGONJA and
>Dragan CELEBIC were in the house. The two of them were taken out of the
>house, and Filipovic, a HVO commander, ordered that they be executed on the
>spot. I was at a 5 meter distance when the soldiers, I do not know their
>names, killed them near the house, although they were civilians, without
any
>weapons.
>
>They then detained other people, but I did not witness any more killings.
At
>7 p.m., the campaign was over. We were taken on foot to the workshop of the
>Kupres textiles factory, where we found several detained Kupres
inhabitants.
>Altogether, we were 74 and they took our personal data. We were neither
>tortured nor harassed there. Dr Marko VILA, also from Kupres, came and
asked
>if we were hungry or sick, as he had come to help, but also threatened us
>saying he knew what we, the Serbs, wanted.
>
>Around midnight, a wounded Kupres civilian, Marko MILINOVIC, was brought in
>by Pero DUMANCIC, alias Klicin, and we heard that a tractor arrived. Later,
>upon our release from detention, we learned that 9 people had been executed
>on that tractor, with the exception of M.M. All, with the exception of
>Marko, were killed. I understand that M.M. lives in Belgrade now, it was in
>the newspapers, and I shall submit the Committee information on him at a
>later date.
>
>At 4 a.m., we were taken out of that detention place, and walked some 20 km
>towards the village of Sujice. Zaro ZIVANIC was killed then. Ante CICAK,
son
>of Joza whom I know from Kupres, and Ivo CICAK, did it. Ante Cicak fired in
>the direction of his legs and Ivo Cicak, with a rifle, directly into his
>head.
>
>Upon our arrival in Sujice, we had our hands tied with wire and then had to
>move to Gornji Brisnik, near Duvno. We were beaten there with all kinds of
>things - stakes, pieces of wood, rifles and hands and kicked us with their
>feet. The 74 of us were then placed into a small garage, size of 4 x 3 sq.
>m. We were threatened that they would throw a bomb into the garage. A
>commander arrived then in a car. He said that we should have been killed,
>but that he would save us and exchange us for prisoners of the other side.
>We were all placed on a truck and driven to Split, to the prison in the
>former barracks "Lora". When we arrived, they beat us there with their
hands
>and legs. A soldier beat Petar SPREMO with the butt of his rifle, Spremo
>fell down and fainted. After ten minutes, we saw no more of him, and a year
>later, his dead body was exchanged, I saw it in Kupres, where he was
buried.
>
>At the prison "Lora", we were taken into cells and interrogated. We were
>then put on a truck and, as I realized later, driven in the direction of
>Zadar. On our way, the vehicle stopped and 20 people were taken from it,
>without roll-call. The rest of us were taken further and after an hours's
>drive we stopped at a barracks in Zadar, they made us get off and and put
on
>uniforms of the National Security Service (SNB), as they wanted to form an
>army of us. We were ill-treated there for two days and then proceeded to
>allegedly exchange us. It was in the direction of Zitnic that we were
taken,
>where those 20 people had been made to get off. Since the trampoline was
>down, we could not see anything. Five persons were roll-called there: Ljuba
>MILIC, Ratko MILIC, Jova MARIC, Slavko DRAGOLJEVIC and Mirko CIVCIJIC, all
>civilians from Kupres. Of the initial 20 persons, 17 were taken back with
>us, while 3 remained and, as far as I know, they have not been seen alive
>since. They were Pajo KALAJIC, Dusan NIKIC and Milos MILISIC, all civilians
>from Kupres. The first five I mentioned who were roll-called, remained
there
>and we have never seen them alive since.
>
>We reached Eminovo selo near Duvno. From there, they took us to Mt. Vran,
>determined to liquidate us.
>
>We were taken back again to Emenovo selo, near Duvno. They started again to
>ill-treat us. They put out a cigarette on my right eye, below the eye, and
>broke three ribs. I was treated later, and I possess medical documents
which
>I shall forward to this Committee. I have not had my eye treated, though.
>They also broke my teeth. I do not know who did it. They were the "Yellow
>ants", a special unit, some called them "the Vukovarians". I could
recognize
>the Croat woman who put out her cigarette on my eye, she was a university
>student in Osijek, but lived in Kupres. They started once again the
>roll-call from a list. Some were ordered to get on the truck, others to
>remain there. I was to get on the truck. Those who remained there have not
>returned ever since. They were: Niko DUVNJAK, Dragan MASIC, Milivoj MASIC,
>Marko MASIC, Ratko MASIC, Rade LUGONJA, Doko MARIC and Dusan DUVNJAK.
>
>The truck took us towards Imotski. We reached the village of Vrgorac, and
>the interrogation was resumed. It was Croatian Easter, Catholic Easter.
They
>called Milo SPREMO, kicked him with their feet until he succumbed and died
>in front of us all. A year later, his body was exchanged, and before the
>exchange, he was buried at Vrgorac. They claimed that he had taken part in
>arming the Serbs, which this civilian denied.
>
>Two days later, we were taken to a detention camp at Ljubusko. They
tortured
>us, but no one was killed. We were beaten by the guards. The person in
>charge of the camp was a man called IVICA. I would not know if he gave
>orders for our beating. Stojan ZUBIC was beaten at Ljubusko, they claimed
he
>was an old chetnik, since he was 70. After the beating, he was not capable
>to rise, and he was taken to a Split hospital. The exchange was effected on
>May 14, and Stojan was taken to Zitic, near Drnis, and exchanged, together
>with us. There were 54 of us, and Stojan died after the exchange. Before
the
>exchange, we were threatened not to tell what had happened, that they would
>take us back, that they would not exchange us, etc.
