🧵 I have survived a crime against humanity. I am tweeting what was done to me so that the world will know.

Leader of the White Eagles paramilitary unit, Milan Lukić, forced between 60 and 70 Bosniak civilians into a house in Bikavac, near Višegrad. We were locked inside.

The exits were blockaded with heavy furniture and a garage door was placed against the main doors to prevent escape.

Gun shots were then fired into the house. Then, Lukić and his men threw grenades inside the house, setting it on fire.

The damage on my body will probably never heal. I am in agony. But I have survived. And I will make sure the world knows that Milan Lukić and his men burned Bosniaks alive in a house in Bikavac.

I’ve just witnessed a crime against humanity in Bikavac, near Višegrad. Milan Lukić and his White Eagles have locked around 60 Bosniaks into a house and set it alight. I don’t think anyone has survived. I could hear them screaming inside the house. Like the screams of cats.

I’ve just witnessed an atrocity. Dozens of Bosniaks were locked into a house in Bikavac (Višegrad) by Serb paramilitaries and burnt alive. I can still hear them screaming…

Today the leader of the Yellow Wasps unit, Repić Vučković, returned to our detention centre (Zvornik’s House of Culture). He shot 20 of my comrades dead.
