Contents Summary
This tape contains two refugee stories and a WGN report. The first one is told by Muhamed, a Bosnian Muslim, who describes how the war ruptured an extensive friendship between him and his Bosnian Serb friend, Vinko Kondic. Mohammed explains that both he and his Bosnian Muslim friend Omer were taken to Manjaca camp by their Bosnian Serb friend. He states his friend Omer suffered regular beatings and was eventually killed at the camp. Mohammed states that Vinko visited the camp and knew what was happening to Omer. The second refugee story is told by Veljko Gavric, a Bosnian Serb married to a Bosnian Croat woman. He talks about leaving Sarajevo with his family knowing that they will not be able to go back again. While watching the news, he saw his apartment building burn. He also talks about his daughter Ivana and her gift for music, and how the family has adjusted to life in England. Footage of a burning apartment building in Sarajevo, and photos of Gavric family. The WGN report briefly states that De Paul University students are assisting law professor Cherif Bassiouni in tracking war crimes committed in the former Yugoslavia. The evidence will be presented to the UN for use in the Hague Tribunal.
