Remans of 117 WWII victims exhumed on island of Dubrovnik

Autor: half
DUBROVNIK, Feb 25 (Hina) - The remains of 117 people killed by Communists in the wake of WWII have been exhumed so far on the islet of Jakljan off the southern Adriatic resort of Dubrovnik.

The victims were Croatian and German soldiers who surrendered to the Partisans in the Istria and Trieste areas in the northern Adriatic, after which they were executed, according to the Hrvatski Domobran association.

The exhumation began on February 17.

More victims could be unearthed by February 28, when the exhumation is to be completed, said Hrvatski Domboran president Zeljko Kulisic.

The remains will be buried in Dubrovnik.

War Veterans Minister Predrag Matic visited Jakljan last week.
