The victims were killed in a building in Zvornik which housed the Bosnian Serb police station and the Milici Unit military unit.

According to the prosecution, Maksimovic entered the building wearing a mask and uniform, and killed the Bosniaks who were being held there.

“The bodies of the killed civilians were found in the Kazanbasa mass grave near Zvornik in 2003, when they were exhumed and identified,” said the prosecution in a statement.

Members of the public have filed complaints about this, while war survivors have been living in fear, but the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina has remained silent, as if a law regulating this issue doesn’t exist.
