KO-Abductions and Disappearances of Non-Albanians in Kosovo ABDUCTIONS AND DISAPPEARANCES OF NON-ALBANIANS IN KOSOVO 24 March 1999 – 31 December 2000 1 2 At least 932 non-Albanians disappeared or were abducted in the period from the deployment of the international peacekeeping force (KFOR) in Kosovo on 12 June 1999 up to 31 December 2000. Field research by the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) brought out that Serbs, Roma, Montenegrins and Bosniacs went missing on a daily basis from 12 June to 1 September 1999, in which period 835 non-Albanians were abducted or disappeared. The whereabouts of 593 remain unknown. The Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) released 141 persons, 24 were able to escape from KLA prisons, 13 were set free by KFOR, and 62 were killed after being abducted. The missing persons are mainly civilians. Of the 593 non-Albanian missing registered by the HLC, 257 were taken by KLA members or individuals acting in its name and all trace of them was subsequently lost, while 336 disappeared in unclear circumstances. The greatest number of disappearances was registered in cities and towns in which there was no violence on a larger scale by Serbian forces against ethnic Albanians during the NATO bombing. In the period from 12 June to 1 September 1999, 121 non-Albanians disappeared in Prizren: 51 were taken by KLA members and their whereabouts remain unknown; 42 disappeared in unclear circumstances; five were killed after being taken; and 23 were released by the KLA or through the intervention of KFOR. In Priština in the same period, 142 non-Albanians disappeared, of whom 27 were released by the KLA a few days later. Up to 1 September, families or KFOR found the bodies of seven of the Priština missing. In Gnjilane, 120 persons disappeared: 47 were released 1 Term denotes persons who disappeared in unclear circumstances, with no eyewitnesses of the incident. 2 Term denotes persons who were unlawfully deprived of their liberty, either by the KLA or persons acting in its name. by the KLA after questioning and eight were set free by KFOR. The bodies of 10 non-Albanians who were killed after being taken were found. According to 3 information collected by the HLC, 63 Serbs and Roma disappeared in Djakovica within a period of two and a half months. Fourteen were released by the KLA after being questioned for a few hours or several days, two were able to escape, the remains of four taken from their homes were found, and the fate of 41 is unknown. HLC research indicates that several tens of Yugoslav Army members and police disappeared during the NATO bombing and fighting with the KLA, whose whereabouts remain unknown. In the same period, over 1,500 Albanians went missing after being taken into custody, most frequently after men were separated out of refugee columns. Their fate, too, is unknown. After 1 September 1999, abductions and disappearances occurred as isolated incidents. This was primarily the result of the fact that Serbs had either fled Kosovo or sought refuge in enclaves protected by KFOR. HLC data shows that 97 non-Albanians went missing from 1 September 1999 up to the end of December 2000 and that nothing is known about 72 of them. Involuntary disappearances, however, continue in Kosovo. Over 300 Albanians went missing in the second half of 1999 and during 2000 and the indications are that their abduction was politically motivated. The fate of the majority remains unclear. Allegations on the existence of KLA prisons were independently confirmed by numerous witnesses interviewed by the HLC. There is no doubt that the KLA held prisoners in many public buildings, private houses and in the open. The information collected brought out that the KLA had over 100 prisons up to 1 September 1999, which is directly connected with the number of disappearances and abductions of non-Albanians. No independent confirmation was available for allegations that secret KLA prisons existed during 2000. It is certain that the KLA made it a practice to frequently move prisoners from one location to another in order to preclude discovery of the secret prisons by KFOR. Witnesses and victims stated that the locations of a number of KLA prisons were reported to KFOR in June 1999 but that KFOR failed to take any action. The HLC learned that, after the abduction of five Serbs in Orahovac on 29 October 1999, KFOR in Peć checked out allegations of secret KLA prisons in the building of the Yugoslav Army Cultural Center and an abandoned industrial plant in the Piskote neighborhood of Djakovica but found no prisoners there. The abducted included two Orahovac Serbs into whom the Prizren public prosecutor had requested an investigation on suspicion that they committed war crimes against the civilian population. 3 Indications are that the number of Roma missing is higher than that registered by the HLC. Roma displaced from Kosovo often change their places of residence in Serbia and Montenegro, owing to which the HLC was unable to locate eyewitnesses of abductions and verify statements on the disappearance of over 150 Roma in Djakovica following the deployment of KFOR. It is certain that the KLA maintained prisons in the basement of the Paštrik Hotel, the Start driving school, the building of the former Yugoslav Army Cultural Center and in the abandoned factory in the Piskote neighborhood in Djakovica; in the boarding school, the basement of the supermarket in Bojanina Street, the Čenar Ćesma neighborhood and the Starti stadium in Gnjilane; in the buildings of the district prison and former police station, the school for deaf-mutes, the basement of the Yugoslav Program apartment complex, the former Yugoslav Army Cultural Center and the abandoned house of a Serb, Dragan Spasić, in Prizren; in private houses in Zlatare and Matićevo villages, in the Dragodan, Taslidže and Ulpijana districts and the Meto Barjaktari elementary school in Priština. All these locations were used by the KLA in the second half of June, July and August 1999 when non-Albanians disappeared or were abducted on a daily basis. The HLC was able to investigate the disappearances which occurred following the deployment of KFOR in Kosovo thanks to the assistance and support of Father Sava and clergy and monks of the Gračanica and Visoki Dečani Monasteries. The present report is not a full and completely accurate account of the missing Serbs, Roma, Bosniacs, Montenegrins, Yugoslav Army members and police as it does not include the disappearances and abductions in 1998 or cases after the arrival of KFOR, which the HLC was unable to research independently either because of lack of sufficient data or because witnesses were unavailable. DEČANI (DEÇAN ) 1. Missing Vukanić , Vlastimir (M, 80), Montenegrin, from Junik (Kalavaj (Mahalla e Kallavaj) neighborhood)), Dečani Municipality – disappeared on 12 June 1999 in Dečani; last seen by the Albanian family Sadiku. Vukanić’s son recounted that his father remained in Dečani after he and his family fled to Serbia on 10 July. Albanian neighbors, the Sadiku family, who had moved in with the Vukanićs during the NATO intervention, stayed with him until 12 June when they returned to their home. These neighbors told the son they had agreed with his father that he would move to their house the next day. When he did not appear, they went to look for him and found the Vukanić house empty. KLA members torched the house that afternoon. Source: HLC, witness statement Krstić , Milija (M, 70), Serb, retired; his wife Krstić , Vilka (F, 60), Slovene, housewife, from Dečani (60 Cara Dušana St.) - disappeared on 11 July 1999. Olga Krstić stated that she last saw her parents in mid-June when she fled Djakovica to Serbia. She had no contact with them after that date. At the end of July, a Serbian Orthodox priest from Dečani informed her that her parents were missing and said their neighbors had told him they were last seen on 11 July. Source: HLC, witness statement Markušić , Omer , (M), Montenegrin Muslim, from Plav - disappeared on the Peć (Pejë)-Dečani road in early December 1999. According to the source, Markušić went missing in an area under the control of Besim Čeku (Besim Çeku), a local KLA commander. Source: Slav Muslims from Plav, Montenegro, Protest in Peć, Kosovo , KOSOVO DAILY NEWS, 6 December 1999 Jovanović , Mile (M); Petrović , Boban (M) and two unidentified men , Serbs, from Dečani - disappeared in January 2000 in Dečani.

Abducted Pavlović , Borivoje (M, 65), Serb from Dečani, retired, resided in Peć - abducted between 15 and 17 June 1999 in Dečani. Pavlović’s sister Angelina told the HLC that her brother was last seen when he left the Dečani Monastery to visit his other sister who lived in the town. Neighbors in this sister’s building told her that a group of KLA men followed Pavlović into the apartment and took him away. Source: HLC, witness statement Jolaja , Binak (Jollaj Binak ) (M, 80); his son Jolaja , Muharem (23); and grandson Jolaja , Binak (13), Roma, from Glodjani (Glloxhan), Dečani Municipality – abducted from their home on 20 and 21 June 1999. The grandson was released while his father and grandfather were taken to the KLA prison in Piskote (Piskotë), Djakovica Municipality (Gjakovë). A member of the Jolaja family recounted that four KLA members, three of whom he identified as Bug and Muharem Sadrija and Arben Neziraj, came to their house on 20 June. After verbally and physically abusing the whole family, they took away the 13-year-old Binak but released him on the road halfway to Piskote, ordering him to tell the rest of the family to leave Kosovo immediately.

  • A Diplomatic History of the 1998–99 Kosovo Conflict
    FROM DAYTON TO ALLIED FORCE: A DIPLOMATIC HISTORY OF THE 1998–99 KOSOVO CONFLICT by Christian Novak A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney 2017 ii I declare that the research presented here is my own original work and has not been submitted to any other institution for the award of a degree iii Abstract This thesis reconstructs the diplomatic response of the international community to the Kosovo conflict of 1998–99. It outlines the process which resulted in the failure of negotiations involving outside agencies and individuals as well as the recourse to air strikes against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Using primary sourced material from the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, personal interviews and other carefully selected primary sources, this thesis explores why international attempts to find a negotiated solution failed. iv Acknowledgements Numerous people have assisted in the completion of this thesis. I would firstly like to acknowledge my research supervisor, Professor Glenda Sluga, for her guidance over the years. My gratitude is also extended to John Drewienkiewicz, Josef Janning, Richard Miles, Klaus Naumann, and Lord David Owen, all of whom took out time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. In particular, I wish to thank Wolfgang Petritsch. His accessibility and willingness to explain the events of 1998–99 considerably enhanced my own understanding of the crisis. Special thanks is reserved for my parents, Anne and David, who have gone above and beyond to support me.

Abstract Detailed distribution pattern of colubrid snakes in Serbia is still inadequately described, despite the long historical study. In this paper, we provide accurate distribution of seven species, with previously published and newly accumulated faunistic records compiled. Comparative analysis of faunas among all Balkan countries showed that Serbian colubrid fauna is among the most distinct (together with faunas of Slovenia and Romania), due to small number of species. Zoogeographic analysis showed high chorotype diversity of Serbian colubrids: seven species belong to six chorotypes. South-eastern Serbia (Pčinja River valley) is characterized by the presence of all colubrid species inhabiting our country, and deserves the highest conservation status at the national level.

  • Distribution of the Snail Amphimelania Holandrii Pfeiffer, 1828 (Melanopsidae; Gastropoda) in Serbia in the 2009-2012 Period
    Novaković et al. Water Research and Management, Vol. 3, No. 4 (2013) 21-26 Distribution of the snail Amphimelania holandrii Pfeiffer, 1828 (Melanopsidae; Gastropoda) in Serbia in the 2009-2012 period Boris Novaković1, Vanja Marković2 and Jelena Tomović2 1 Serbian Environmental Protection Agency, Ministry of Energy, Development and Environmental Protection, Ruže Jovanovića 27a, 11160 Belgrade, E-mail: [email protected] 2 University of Belgrade, Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stanković”, Despota Stefana 142, 11060 Belgrade, Serbia; E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The paper presents the results of the study on the distribution of the freshwater snail Amphimelania holandrii (C.Pfeiffer, 1828) in Serbia. During the investigations, A.holandrii was recorded at 71 sampling sites located at 48 rivers. According to our data, the species is widely distributed within the investigated area.
