MASSES, PRAYERS SAID IN COMMEMORATION OF KILLED ON MARKALE

SARAJEVO, Feb 4 (Hina) - A solemn mass in commemoration of those who were killed in a massacre three years ago on the Sarajevo market of Markale, was held in Sarajevo Roman Catholic Cathedral on Tuesday. The service was said by Bosnia-Herzegovina's Cardinal, Msgr. Vinko Puljic, accompanied by all Roman Catholic Bishops of Bosnia - Assistant Bishop, Pero Sudar, Bishop of Banja Luka, Msgr. Franjo Komarica, Bishop of Mostar Ratko Peric - and Assistant Bishop of Srijem and Djakovo, Msgr. Marin Srakic. Three years ago 67 Sarajevans were killed and more than a hundred were injured on the market of Markale in the blast of one shell fired from Serb positions around Sarajevo. Cardinal Puljic said that "we could not remain indifferent towards evil grown from human hatred." A Moslem prayer (hatma dova) will be said in all mosques in the Bosnian capital on Tuesday evening, and Bosnian Serb Orthodox Metropolitan Nikolaj will hold liturgy in the old Orthodox Church at Bascarsija on Wednesday in memory of the victims of that horrible massacre. Sarajevo Canton authorities will lay a wreath near the spot of the tragic incident, on Wednesday. (hina) jn mš 042114 MET feb 97
