What's more, according to this survivor, the UNPROFOR soldiers aided in this evil - securing the site for visits by Muslim leaders, for instance, and after which the inmates would be beaten worse.
Slavko Jovicic Slavuj "...who spent precisely 1,334 days, i.e. three years and eight months, in the prison camp "Silos" in Tarcin..."In his book "Silos" ([Serb] Oslobodjenje, 1997), Jovicic lists more than 70 political, military and police officials on whom he lays serious charges. According to Jovicic, those responsible for "Silos" include Nezir Kazic, the commander of the 109th Mountain Brigade who had the camp under his jurisdiction, and Mirsad Catic Cuperak, Mirsad Sabic, Nermin Simsic and Nezir Fiso. The warden of the camp in Hrasnica was Zijo Gagic, while the interrogator in the camps who, according to the book, tortured and beat up the inmates was Mustafa Gegaj Mujo. Security officer of the Fourth Motorized, later 109th Mountain Brigade of the First Crops of the Army of Bosnia-Hercegovina Zijo Catic is accused of being responsible for murders, torture and imprisonment of civilians in Hrasnica and "Silos".
In your opinion, who in the Bosniak political and military leadership knew, or had a reason to know about the existence of the camp "Silos" in Tarcin?
Vahid Karavelic, at the time the commander of the First Sarajevo Corps, knew. He spent more than ten days in the camp overseeing the work of the Serb camp inmates on the runway of the helicopter landing pad and a gas station that was supposed to serve it. He distributed ranks to the guards, prompting them thereby to maltreat us more, in order to speed up the construction. The camp was only 20 meters away from the helicopter landing pad and the building housing the headquarters of the 14th Division of the Army of Bosnia-Hercegovina. On four occasions, during 1994 and 1995, I saw from the distance of between 10 and 15 meters Alija Izetbegovic and recognized my pre-war colleagues among his bodyguards. Izetbegovic passed through the tunnel under the airport runway to Tarcin, from where he flew to different parts of the country in a helicopter. It is interesting that Izetbegovic used helicopters marked by red crosses, and the whole region was secured during his visits by Malaysian UNPROFOR soldiers. I got a confirmation that Izetbegovic knew about the existence of the camp "Silos", including the identity of the inmates, in 1994, when two of his escorts, Fadil Pekic and Akir Sisic paid me a visit. They promised that they would urge Izetbegovic to order that I be released and then, two hours after their departure, the camp guards beat me so badly that I spent 15 days in coma. In 1996 in Pale I found out that Haris Silajdzic also knew about the existence of the camp in Tarcin. I knew him through my work and before the war I had coffee with him at least once a week. During the election campaign Silajdzic was a guest of the then Serb Television in the Pale studio and I, to make the irony more poignant, was in charge of making sure that the guests from the Federation were safe. I shall never forget an encounter with Haris Silajdzic in the office of the editor-in-chief, full of guests and journalists. He was obviously scared when he saw me. I asked him whether he had known about "Silos" and that I had been kept in that camp. To my surprise, he said he had. He tried to excuse himself by saying that he had written four times to Izetbegovic urging that I be released. I replied that it was good that he wrote four times to Izetbegovic, because I spent four years in the camp. God forbid, he could have written five or six times...
Joan would you prefer the only inhabitants in the world to be only Serbs. Would you get rid of everyone else because all they do is conspire against you and your fellow Serbs, the only people to be mistreated in the Balkan war?
Do you base you paranoia (maybe you should start taking your meds again) on the Serbian Propaganda and the strange websites which of course you believe is the only truth. After all uncle Slobo would not lie to you would he? Serb Politicians don't misrepresent the truth do they Joan. Only the west does right? Must be hard swimming with a head as thick as cement.
P.S. Serbia is a prospect for joining NATO joan who will you believe then? I would suggest a quiet little house on a mountain somewhere and some newspapers from the good old days so you can continue to hate the rest of the Non Serb world which is apparent in you inability to acknowledge it.
