The Institute for the Missing Persons of BiH said that they were searching for 27 Bosniaks from that area.

“We are searching for a group of 27 Bosniaks from the Rudo area, who were captured in 1992. They were allegedly brought to a stable in the vicinity of this place and killed on two occasions. Three of them were killed on one day and the remaining persons on the following day,” said Institute Director Amor Masovic.

The exhumation at this location began on Monday, July 14.

“We conducted a search in the vicinity of this location a few years ago, but we found nothing. Now we have information that a mass grave is located in the vicinity of this place. We suppose that it contains the remains of persons from the group of Bosniaks for whom we have been searching for a long time,” Masovic said.
 
The identity of the victims will be known following a DNA analysis, so it will be known whether they belonged to the group of 27 killed people.

Masovic says that the Institute has information that a mass grave is located in the vicinity of Stankovaca and that they will wait for a warrant by the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina before they begin searching the location.
