More Srebrenica victims found in Bosnia mass grave

By Maja Zuvela

BLJECEVO, Bosnia, Sep 10 (Reuters) -- Forensic experts say they
have found the remains of dozens of Muslims massacred at Srebrenica
during Bosnia's ethnic war in a mass grave near the eastern town.

Team member Ismet Music said 103 complete or incomplete bodies
had so far been exhumed from the grave on a hill above the village
of Bljecevo, with clothes and other belongings of the victims
scattered on the surface. Documents found at the site showed
they were from Srebrenica.

He is a member of the missing persons commission of the
Muslim-Croat federation, one of two autonomous Bosnian regions
to emerge from the 1992-95 conflict.

"We have found a lot of clothes ... that indicate these were
civilians of different ages who tried to escape through the woods
after the fall of Srebrenica," he said standing by the grave.

Up to 8,000 Muslim men and boys were killed in three days after
Bosnian Serb forces overran the town in July 1995, Europe's worst
massacre since World War II.

The UN war crimes tribunal in The Hague has indicted wartime
Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic and his military commander
Ratko Mladic for genocide in Srebrenica.

Two of the world's most wanted men both remain at large.

Nine years after the war, mass graves holding victims of ethnic
cleansing and other atrocities are still found regularly.

More than 16,000 people remain unaccounted for.

Music said the bodies unearthed in Bljecevo had been moved from
another site in an attempt to cover up the killings.

A separate grave some 20 metres away yielded 366 complete or incomplete
remains of Muslims killed in the Srebrenica area when it was exhumed
last month.

The two sites were found near a cemetery officially opened by
former U.S. President Bill Clinton last year, where 1,327 identified
Srebrenica victims have been buried so far.

Another Muslim-led forensics team said on Friday they had recovered
109 bodies from a site in north-western Bosnia, believed to be Muslims
killed in Serb detention camps in 1992.

of Bljecevo, near the Eastern-Bosnian town of Bratunac, 50 kms north of
Sarajevo, Bosnia, on Thursday, Sept. 2, 2004. Forensics experts believed
that this mass grave contains the remains of over 200 people. Most of
the remains are believed to be those of Muslims from Srebrenica killed
in July 1995 during the fall of Srebrenica. The site is a so-called
secondary grave, where bodies initially buried elsewhere were dumped.
