DISSATISFACTION WITH THE WORK PERFORMANCE OF BiH MISSING PERSONS INSTITUTE

BANJA LUKA, APRIL 9 /SRNA/ – Republika Srpska Minister of Labour, War Veterans and Disabled Persons Protection Radan Ostojić expressed dissatisfaction with the work performance of the BiH Missing Persons Institute, noting that more than 1,500 Serb victims have not been found from the last war until today.

Ostojić says that negotiations are underway aimed at improving the efficiency of finding Serb victims, which the Research Centre of War, War Crimes and Tracing Missing Persons is very well informed about. "The Srpska Justice Ministry is involved in all of this, as well as the Organisation of Families of Captured, Killed Soldiers and Missing Civilians of Srpska. I hope that something will be done on this issue," Ostojić told the press after today’s session of the Republika Srpska Government. He said that all Serb institutions made a mistake for transferring the competences related to searching for the missing to the level of BiH. "All institutions transferred to the level of BiH have proven to be non-Serb and against the Serb people and Republika Srpska," he said.
