In the letter to Klein, "Appeal" said that one hundred
families who were still in exile and did not know the whereabouts
of their loved ones, would leave for Rome on Monday evening, to
again bear witness to the genocide committed against the Croatian
people.
Farkas stressed that Klein's support to families from Vukovar
in the identifications of their loved ones exhumed from mass graves
and in the search for details about missing family members had so
far been insufficient.

"the whereabouts of 1,480 detained persons from Vukovar are not
known to this day".
