Bone remains of more than 100 unidentified victims of the 1995 genocide in Srebrenica in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, in which more than 8,000 Bosniak civilians were massacred by brutal Serbs, are kept in morgues.
The victims who were martyred by the terrorist Serb forces in the Srebrenica genocide, which is described as the greatest human tragedy after the Second World War in Europe, and whose identity cannot be determined because they did not have any surviving relatives, show how great the persecution is.
Former Head of Missing Persons Institute, Amor Masovic, who made great efforts to find the bone remains of those murdered in the Holocaust, drawing attention to the anonymous victims waiting in the morgues.
"During my term, this number was 98. It's probably over 100 now," Masovic said.
"So-called Anonymous are people whose DNA has been analyzed but whose DNA cannot be compared with blood samples because they have no close living relatives. His relatives probably suffered the same fate. Maybe there are victims of genocide whose bone remains were found 15 years ago and have been waiting for years in cold morgue rooms," Masovic added.
Stating that the victims of the unnamed bone remains also suffered from hunger, thirst and persecution in Srebrenica, Masovic said, "They also suffered the fate of genocide. They, too, were shot alongside those with tombstones in Potocari today."
Masovic pointed out that the unnamed ones were also exhumed from the mass graves.
"They too should find peace with their friends, loved ones and acquaintances in Potocari. They should have a white tombstone too. It may contain the information 'unnamed' and the mass grave from which they were excavated. They also deserve to have Fatiha recited on their souls," Masovic added.
