The protected witness code-named IK-3 said that two policemen took him to the room in which he met Indira, another woman and prisoner called Hazba.

“A policeman ordered Hazba to sit in my lap. She was asked by Indira what she was doing in Slavonski Brod. The left or the right policeman ordered me to hit Hazba on her hands, her back. I was hitting her, but she said: ‘You can do that harder’,” said witness IK-3.

He said that after that Indira questioned Hazba.

“As I saw it, she wanted to accuse her as a spy for the Serbian Democratic Party. The left or the right policeman told me to grab her by her breasts and squeeze as hard as I could. He said I was not doing it right, to grab her by her nipples as I would milk a cow. He once again ordered me to do it harder, and when I did, she screamed. After that they ordered me to stick my thumbs in her vagina,” recalled the witness.

This torture, he said, lasted for an hour.

“As far as Hazba and I were concerned, Indira was the ringleader,” said the witness.

Indira Kameric is charged, as member of the 101th Bosanski Brod Brigade of the Croatian Defence Council, with participating in 1992 in the torture of Serb and Bosniak civilians and prisoners of war locked up in the police station and stadium of the FC Polet.

IK-4, another witness at this trial, said he watched soldiers of the Croatian Defence Council, among them two women, beating Jovo Dujic.

A camp prisoner told him that one of them was Indira, whom the witness knew from before the war, but did not recognise at the time.

“They were kicking, hitting, stomping on his back… They later took him to the stadium’s bathroom, left him in the corner. He was all covered in blood. He sat there for an hour, after that they took him away and he did not come back,” said IK-4.

The trial is scheduled to resume on April 24.
