SARAJEVO, Aug 1 (Hina) - The Serbs keep deporting Moslems and
Croats from the occupied parts of Bosnia-Herzegovina, UNHCR
spokesman Peter Kessler Monday told a news conference in Sarajevo.
A group of 35 Moslems, most of them women and children, were
expelled from Bijeljina on Sunday, said Kessler, recalling that 225
people were expelled from that Serb-controlled northern-Bosnian
town in July. The Serb authorities offered them shady arrangements
for travelling to third countries for which they had to pay 2,000
DEM and sign a document renouncing their real estate. All the
deportees were then stripped of their valuables and forced to trek
accross country toward the Moslem frontline.
According to reports received by the UNHCR, the ethnic
cleansing campaign in Bijeljina is run by one Gojkan Durkovic.
According to the deportees' testimonies, the Serb authorities
have taken a great number of draft eligible Moslem men to a work
camp in Lopare. NO UNHCR or Red Cross official has so far been
allowed to visit that camp, but it is believed that the Serbs are
mistreating the prisoners and forcing them to work on the
frontline.
Kessler said a group of 61 Moslems expelled from Sanski Most,
western Bosnia, arrived in Turbe on Saturday. They, too, were
stripped of real estate and personal property before deportation.
The Contact Group peace plan assigned Sanski Most to the Bosniac-
Croat Federation.
On the same day, 35 Serbs from Travnik and Zenica passed
through Turbe on their way to northern Bosnia. Kessler said they
had obviously been treated very differently from the expelled
Moslems. None of them had been forced to leave Moslem-controlled
Zenica and Travnik, and most of them were carrying a number of
suitcases and other heavy luggage.
