FOCA I CONSULTANT REPORT
Summary of Events
From September 13 through November 10, 1999, the Federation Commission on Missing
Persons - Bosniak Side investigated a total of 57 sites near the town of Foca and exhumed a
minimum of 83 individuals. The bodies were recovered from burned houses, single, double
and mass graves and collections of surface remains. The Commission also repeatedly
searched for a mass grave, suspected of containing in excess of two hundred people, but was
unsuccessful.
A Forensic Consultant from Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) attended six days of
previsits to the area and was present for 14 days of exhumations. The author participated in
the recovery of remains at eight sites.
(Editor's note: In 1999, it was agreed that the "State Commission on Missing Persons
(Bosniak Side)" and the "Federal Commission on Missing Persons - Croat Side" would
eventually be referred to as the "Federation Commission on Missing Persons - Bosniak Side"
and "Federation Commission on Missing Persons - Croat Side," respectively. For purposes
of simplicity amd clarity, any reference to either of these commissions in 1999 reports will use
the "Federation" names.)
Site Description
A total of 57 sites were investigated during the 14 days of exhumation. A summary of the
sites, identified by number in chronological order, is provided in Table 1. The date of
exhumation, site name, grid co-ordinates and reference map information is also included in
Table 1. Topographic maps indicating site locations are provided in Figures 1 through 4.
Site 1 was a suspected mass grave believed to contain over 200 individuals. The search for
this grave focused on a large field to the south of a gravel access road near a coal mine (Photo
1). The search was later extended to include the north side of the access road, which was
covered with mounds of gravel and building debris.
Sites 11, 20, 30 and 35 were graves containing multiple individuals. Site 11 was a grass field
to the north of a rural cemetery and consisted of one triple grave and a separate single grave
in close proximity. Site 20 was located in a riparian zone 3 kilometers from the main road in
the village of Ratine. A mass grave containing eight individuals was located on a grass field
5 meters east of a stream, with a single grave 5 meters to the northeast. Site 30 was a mass
grave containing seven individuals, located in the yard adjacent to a destroyed house. Site 35
was a triple unmarked grave located at the edge of rural village cemetery.
Site 3, 9, 23, 28, 40 and 43 were double graves of manual construction. All six sites were in
rural locations adjacent to destroyed homes. Site 27 was a double grave and single grave
(separated by 1.5 meters) at the edge of an isolated grazed field.
Of the 57 sites in this report, 30 were single graves of manual construction. Details of these
graves are provided in Table 2, including site number and description, grave depth and
treatment and general observations.
The remaining 15 sites involved surface deposited remains. Sites 14, 19, 33, 41 and 49 were
single individuals in lightly wooded areas. Sites 36 and 55 involved collections of surface
scattered and naturally buried bones representing multiple individuals. Both sites were
located immediately adjacent to destroyed rural homes. Site 15 was a destroyed utility shed
containing the commingled remains of two individuals. Two individuals were also recovered
from site 37, with skeletal elements scattered across a lightly wooded slope. Three
individuals were recovered from a lightly wooded ravine at site 48; two were surface
deposited while the third was exhumed from a single grave.
Five sites (2, 10, 42, 51 and 53) consisted of destroyed rural houses containing the burned
remains of multiple individuals.
Site Histories
All individuals recovered from the Foca region were reportedly killed in 1992. The 200
individuals believed to be in the mass grave at site 1 were killed in May and June, 1992, and
were from the towns of Foca, Miljevina and Kalinovik.
PHR Consultant Dr. Debra Komar attended the previsits of 64 sites over six days (October 4,
6, 8, 18 and November 5 and 9). Information regarding the site histories was obtained from
witness statements or the Federation Commission during the previsit or exhumation process.
A summary of site histories and the suspected identities of the decedents recovered (where
known) is provided in Appendix A.
Despite thorough searches and the digging of numerous test pits, no remains were found at
sites 1,2,7,9, 10, 16 and 26.
With the exception of site 1, which employed a backhoe, all burials were excavated using
shovels and pickaxes. All followed standard archaeological methods. Details of the
exhumations of single graves are provided in Table 2.
Double graves were encountered at five sites (sites 3, 23, 27, 28, 40 and 43). Site 3, a
manually constructed grave 0.4 meters deep, contained the skeletal remains of two women.
Both were fully dressed in civilian clothing (Photo 2). One of the women was reportedly
pregnant and an examination of the pelvic cavity of body #2 revealed evidence of possible
fetal remains and an oxidized bullet (Photo 3). A gold earring and necklace were also
recovered with body #2.
Site 23 contained two partly disarticulated skeletonized individuals at a depth of 0.4 meters
(Photo 18). Both were wrapped in a single blanket and each was dressed in civilian clothing.
Site 28 was a secondary burial (0.3 meters in depth) of the commingled skeletonized remains
of two males. The remains included two right distal tibiae of discernibly different sizes. The
remains were; highly fragmentary and many elements showed considerable postmortem
animal damage and evidence of burning. A pocket watch, scraps of socks and pants, and a
dental plate with gold teeth were also recovered. The PHR Consultant participated in the
recovery and differentiated the commingled remains.
Site 40 contained the skeletonized remains of two males dressed in civilian clothing (Photo
32). The grave was of manual construction and was 0.7 meters in depth.
Site 43 was a manually constructed grave (0.4 meters in depth) containing the skeletal
remains of two males (Photo 37). Both were dressed in civilian clothing. A bullet was
recovered from the grave and both skulls were fragmentary.
Site 27 consisted of a single grave and a double grave 1.5 meters apart; (Photo 21). One skull
was recovered on the surface and appeared to belong to the individual in the single grave.
Two skulls were recovered in the double grave.
All remains were skeletonized and civilian clothing was associated with all three individuals.
The bodies in the double grave (0.8 meters in depth) were wrapped in a blanket and plastic.
The single grave (0.5 meters in depth) contained a rudimentary wooden coffin.
There were five locations involving graves with multiple individuals (sites 11, 20, 30 and 35).
The initial se2irch of site 11 produced no remains. The team returned to the site and exhumed
two graves - a single grave (Photo 7) and a triple grave (Photo 6). The single grave was 0.5
meters in depth and contained a male in civilian clothing wrapped in a blanket. The triple
grave was 1 meter in depth. The three individuals were in civilian clothing and had been
wrapped in plastic. Wooden boards separated the bodies.
Site 20 also contained a multiple grave and a single grave in close proximity. Eight
individuals were exposed side-by-side at a depth of 0.2 meters (Photos 15 and 16). All were
dressed in civilian clothing; no other body wrapping were evident. The Federation
Commission returned three days later to recover a ninth individual from a single grave of
manual construction. The skeletonized remains were uncovered at a depth of 0.9 meters and
were fully dressed in civilian clothing (Photo 17).
Site 30 was a mass grave with seven individuals. The overburden of the grave contained a
large amount of household refuse. At a depth of 0.2 meters, the laborers unearthed a layer of
roofing tiles placed over a series of pipe dividers. Removal of this layer revealed seven
bodies laying side-by-side (Photo 23). All were in civilian clothing and the heads of bodies
#4 and #7 had been wrapped. The empty grave was 0.5 meters in depth and appeared to be
of manual construction.
Site 35 was a triple grave of manual construction and a depth of 0.4 meters. It contained the
remains of three women, designated as RAT #11 through #13 (Photo 30). All were fully
dressed in civilian clothing and body #11 retained a pair of eyeglasses in situ (Photo 31).
Preliminary examination of the remains at the site indicated all three had been shot in the
head.
Sites 14, 15, 19, 33, 36, 37, 48, 49 and 55 involved the recovery of surface remains.
Recovery tedbniques consisted of thorough searches of the area, marking all remains with
flags, followed by the excavation of the area to ensure no buried remains. Sites 14, 19, 33,
41, and 49 contained a single set of remains concentrated in a defined area. Site 15 consisted
of two individuals in a destroyed shed. There was some commingling of remains where the
bodies overlapped (Photo 10). Site 37 was a steep embankment where the remains of two
women were discovered. The weathered skeletal remains of the older woman were scattered
across the embankment (body #9, Photo 28), while the thorax of the younger woman had
been covered by a thin layer of sediment and leaf litter at the base of the hill (body #10, Photo
29). The complete skull of body #9 was discovered in the ravine at the base of the
embankment, while the fragmentary skull of #10 was found scattered at the top of the hill.
Sites 36 and 55 both involved the recovery of multiple individuals, initially surface deposited,
then naturally buried by a thin layer of soil. In both cases, the remains were recovered
immediately adajacent to a destroyed rural home. The team initially discovered four sets of
innominates in tall grass at site 36. Further searches revealed several femora and tibae in the
surrounding area and two femora 10 meters to the north. Shallow excavation of the area
between the dwelling ;ind the gravel roadway unearthed hundreds of disarticulated skeletal
elements. Preliminary attempts to separate individuals at the scene (Photo 27) produced a
minimum of eight individuals, but more are believed present. Site 55 also had numerous
skeletal elements scattered on the surface around the house foundation. Shallow excavation
of two areas revealed additional skeletal elements. A total of three skulls were recovered, but
four unmatched innominates indicated that the minimum number of individuals at the site.
Three individuals were recovered from site 48, two of which were surface deposits while the
third was exhumed from an unmarked grave. The remains of body #1 were removed from a
manually dug grave, 0.5 meters in depth. The skeletonized remains were wrapped in a
blanket and fully dressed in civilian clothing (Photo 44). The surface remains were scattered
throughout the ravine and hillside. Two skulls were recovered; one at the top of the hill and
one in a field below the ravine. Attempts were made at the site to differentiate the remains
into two individuals, designated body #2 (Photo 42) and #3 (Photo 43).
Some civilian style clothing was found in association with surface remains at all sites. All
remains were fully skeletonized and many showed evidence of postmortem animal damage.
The PHR Consultant assisted in the recovery and in separating the remains at sites 15, 36, 37,
48 and 55.
At three locations, (sites 42, 51 and 53) the Federation Commission recovered the burned
remains of multiple individuals from destroyed houses. Site 42 was a large dwelling in the
village of Jelec. The laborers removed all the rubble from both areas of the house and dug
test trenches through the ash and soil that filled the foundation. When human remains were
discovered in one room, the ash was sifted through a screen (Photo 33). The bulk of remains
were discovered under a set of bedsprings. Two large knives (Photo 34) were discovered in
close association with the bedsprings (Photo 35). Although two people were reported to have
been in the house, preliminary examination of remains at the site indicated only one
individual was recovered.
Site 51 included a destroyed home and a refuse fire pit immediately adjacent. The majority
of remains were recovered from the fire pit, although unburned skeletal elements were
discovered scattered throughout the scene. Remains consistent with three females (confirmed
by the recovery of two right and one unmatched left innominates) were collected. The ash
from the refuse pit was screened and seven shell casings were discovered (Photo 46).
Site 53 was a rubble and dirt filled house foundation in the village of Banjine. Workers dug
test trenches until human remains were located, then screened all loose fill to maximise
recovery. The skeletal elements recovered were extremely fragmentary and completely
calcined. The minimum number of individuals was established by the position of remains
recovered. Three discrete concentrations of remains were found, with no commingling of
elements. Recognisable skeletal elements indicated the relative positions of the bodies
(Photo 48).
The PHR Consultant participated in the recovery at all three sites. No clothing was recovered
at any of the locations.
As of the writing of this report, no information is available from the Federation Commission
regarding the postmortem examination of the remains from these sites. The dates of the
examinations have not yet been determined.
Process Evaluation
The exhumation and investigative teams exhibited professionalism and expertise in all phases
of the recoveries. Under the direction of Dr. Dobraca, recoveries involving multiple
individuals were comprehensive and well executed. Every effort was made to establish the
minimum number of individuals recovered at the scene. Autopsy Assistant Saudin Hrnjic
showed considerable knowledge of anatomy and basic archaeological methods and was
consistently careful and thorough in his recovery of remains. Recoveries of burned remains
were conducted with appropriate care and screens were used when necessary. Adequate
searches were always carried out following the removal of remains to ensure no additional
material could be recovered. Assistance from the PHR Consultant was requested when
necessary, such as sites involving burned or commingled remains.
Sites 2 and 3 - A total of 17 people are reported missing from the village of Mrdenovici,
including a pregnant woman believed buried at site 3. Site 2 was a destroyed house in the
village in which two people had died following the collapse of the burning roof. A witness
had seen human skulls at the location weeks after the deaths had occurred. The Federation
Commission stated that this area was among the first to suffer fatalities during the war. The
relatives of an indicted war criminal reside in the village and the Federation Commission was
cautious and concerned for the safety of the witnesses during the previsit.
Site 5 and 6 - The decedents were reported to be a married couple RAMIZA and JUSUF
KIBRIC. No information was provided as to the circumstances of their deaths.
Site 7 - The witness led the Federation Commission to the old Budanj city cemetery and
indicated a marked grave. The decedent was reported to have been a homicide victim but
there was some concern as to the date of the crime. The Federation Commission was not
convinced that the killing had occurred during the war and decided against exhuming the
individual at this time.
Site 10 - Witness statements indicate that two people were believed to have been lying in two
separate beds on the upper floor when the house was set on fire.
Site 12 - The decedent was an adult male believed killed by Bosnian Serb forces in 1992.
The Bosniak army reportedly searched the wooded area for his body for 16 days before it was
discovered and buried in the ravine.
Site 16 - The decedent is reported to have been an elderly woman born in 1901 and killed in
1992.
Site 27 - According to witness statements, a father and his two sons killed in September 1992
were buried in two graves at this location. The identities of the decedents are reported to be
FADIK FUDO andNASUF BESIREVIC.
Site 28 - The intact body of MURAT OMERAGIC and the partial remains of NAZIF
SULJELIC were brougiht to this area by the witness and buried in a single grave. During the
previsit, the OHR representative expressed concern that the grave looked recently disturbed.
Following examination of the scene, the PHR Consultant offered the opinion that the large
stones covering the grave had been disturbed by bears foraging for food (similar disturbances
in rock formations had been seen throughout the area). The grave itself had been
undisturbed.
Site 29 - In July of 1992, the decedent UZELZ KALOPER had been killed on a nearby road
and was buried by witnesses at the edge of a clearing.
Site 31 - Two civilian women are reported buried in separate graves. One of the women was
born in 1904 and was killed in August 1992. The other decedent is believed to be AVDO
SARAC, born in 1933.
Site 34 - The decedent's body had reportedly lain on the surface for eight days prior to being
buried by the witness's brother in July 1992.
Site 35 - According to witness statements, in July 1992 three elderly women ZADA
SLJIVO, MEJRA SUNDO and FATIMA SUNDO were killed by Bosnian Serb forces while
hiding in a nearby farmhouse. All three had been shot in the head. Neighbours had
discovered the bodies and buried them in a single grave at the edge of the Muslim cemetery.
Site 40 - Two women, RAMIZ OMERAGIC and HAMID SALAKA, were killed and buried
in this location in July 1992.
Site 44 - The decedent ZULIJA BARLOV (born 1949) was killed on June 12, 1992, and
buried near her destroyed home. One of the individuals recovered from site 43 is believed to
have been her husband.
Site 45 - The Federation Commission stated that 30 people are believed to be missing from
the Grabovik area.
Site 47 - Refugees used the trail to escape the fighting in 1992. Witnesses reported seeing
many individuals lying dead along the trail.
Site 51 - The Commission searched for three women reported killed and burned in the house
owned by IBRO ZAMETICA.
Site 52 - One individual was recovered from a single grave adjacent to the home of IZMET
DUBAR.
Site 53 - Three people were reportedly killed and burned in the house of SAHBAZ
MIWATA.
Site 56 - The decedent, an elderly male born in 1904 and killed in 1992, was reportedly the
religious leader of a local mosque.
