Nedeljko Mitrovic, head of the Association of Families of Detained and Fallen Veterans and Missing Civilians of Republika Srpska, told press this week that institutions tasked with locating missing people in BiH discriminate against Serbs. According to Mitrovic, the International Commission for Missing Persons and the Missing Persons Institute have not made the same efforts to identify and locate Serb victims of wartime violence as they have for Bosniak victims.
“The Missing Persons Institute practices discrimination in the search for the missing because only 235 Serb victims have been identified since the institution started working,” Mitrovic told reporters during a presentation of a publication on missing persons in BiH.
He recalled that 1,675 people from Republika Srpska were still missing and stressed the need for making radical changes in the search process.
