Dear friends: I am deeply honored to offer an enthusiastic recommendation in support of the proposal presented by the Humanitarian Law Center, of Belgrade, Serbia, to conduct a one-year project called “Mapping Public Memorials in the post-Yugoslav States.”
We express serious concern for the security of Slobodan Pejović, a public witness of a war crime: the deportation of refugees from Bosnia and Herzegovina from Montenegro to Republika Srpska Armed Forces in 1992.
The Serbian War Crimes Prosecutor submitted a request to the investigative judge of the War Crimes Chamber of Belgrade District Court to conduct an investigation against six persons, suspected of having committed war crimes against Roma civilians in the villages of Skočići, Malešić, Petkovci and Drinjaca, in the municipality of Zvornik in 1992.

On November 5th 2009, the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) received a judgement rendered by the Belgrade First Municipal Court which ordered Serbia to pay 500,000 RSD in damages to Šefket Hukić, a Bosniak from the village of Ugao, in the municipality of Sjenica. Serbia is ordered to pay damages because of its responsibility for the torture suffered by Šefket Hukić at the hands of members of the Sjenica Police Department in December 1993. HLC, within its support programme for victims of past human rights violations, filed a compensation lawsuit against the Republic of Serbia on behalf of Šefket Hukić on April 18th 2007.
