At the beginning Mijo Klisurić took me around the village with a weapon, I think he had a rifle, later on I had to go by myself , on that they i was ordered to go to Dobovac, also a list where, I could see at the end who gave the order for this announcement, it was a certain Marko Kovač, an officer, then they changed but this announcement was ordered by Ljuban Devetak.
Iz početka me Klisurić Mijo vodio po selu sa oružjem, mislim ono s puškom, kasnije sam morao i sam, taj dan sam dobio da idem u Dobovac, isto tako listu jednu na kojoj, uvijek sam vidio dale na kraju tko je naredio to za dobovanje, bio je taj Marko Kovač, taj neki oficir, onda je bilo, kako koji se redali ali uglavnom za ovo dobovanje bio je Ljuban Devetak.
We had no communication with this, there was no electricity, no water, there was nothing, you know, the phones were not working, and then we did, when something needed to be proclaimed for the co-operative or for the Local Community. I proposed the idea of a town crier, a drummer, to be formed; I remember when I was little there was such a drummer in Lovas, so this is not something I made up, I have seen this.
Nismo imali komunikaciju s ovim, nema struje nema vode nema ništa znate, telefoni ne rade, i onda smo tako kada treba nešto za zadrugu da se objavi ili za mjesnu zajednicu, ja sam im dao ideju da poštara,, dobošara da formiraju, kao mali ja se sjećam , bilo u Lovasu dobošar, znači nisam je izmislio to, ja sam to doživio.
We were gathered there and forced inside and searched; benches were already set up, so this is where we were sitting.
Onda su nas tu okupili, terali su nas unutra, pretresali, tu su već bile postavite klupe, tu smo sjedili.
Then, they came later in the evening and made a list of persons present; in the morning Ljuban was there, he was reading some list and talked, then people were lead into the kitchen, hey were mostly beaten, we saw them coming out badly beaten; later on we were gathered and the Army took us down there to the mine field.
Onda su došli kasnije navečer su nas popisali da bi ujutro bio Ljuban tu je čitao neki spisak, razgovarao, pa su ljude vodili unutra u kuhinju, tukli ih uglavnom viđali smo ih kako izlaze van isprebijani da bi nas kasnije pokupio, tu nas je vojska odvela dolje na minsko polje.
One man was beating me with a crow bar, and the other one with a cable, using various things to beat me with, the third man was stabbing me with a knife , so they did, there was blood gushing, and then the other Peton went to the face , who ever lookd at his face or anything he would stab that person, then he would go to someone else and stab or hit that person, an so on.
Jedan me tukao sa nekim pajserom, drugi sa sajlama, sa koječime, ovaj treći je boo nožem, tako da su oni, iz njega je krv liptala, onda je drugi Peton išao u lice, pa tko ga god pogleda u lice ili bilo šta on ga ubode, pa ide pa onoga ubode, udari i tako.
We were brought here on the 17th after completing our compulsory work, which we did every day, mostly physical labour, but it wasn't something that was planned long-term but from day to day. Of the jobs, during those exact days I was, down there, there was some kind of cauldron , and I do not know, to make apple and grape brandy, I was there and we worked there, and towards the end they came and said: "All of you here must come to a meeting". However, here at the entrance they had already started to search the people,even finding objections to a plain nail clipper, the had beaten people because they had nail clippers on them, can you imagine, for nail, nail clipper or how it is called.
Mi smo ovdje dovedeni 17-tog poslije radne obveze koju smo imali svakodnevno, dakle to su bili uglavnom fizički poslovi, a nije bilo nešto programirano dugoročno nego od dana do dana i od poslova tako da ja sam baš tih dana, tu dolje je bila nekakav kazan i ne znam i pekla se nekakva rakija od jabuka, grožđa i šta ja znam to sve, ja sam bio tu i tu smo radili i sad pri kraju dolaze i kažu „Svi morate ovdje doći na taj sastanak“, međutim ovdje na samom ulazu, tu je već počeo pretres ljudi pa čak je i je jedna obična grickalica smetala gdje su ljude tukli zato što ima grickalicu, možeš mislit, za nokte, ona noktarica ili kako bih rekao.
The first search happened there, we spent the entire night awake there, of course we were beaten and so on, I can remember the details really well. One man was killed, Nikola Badnjak, here, he was sitting next to me on one side on the other Vlado Bošnjak or Bošnjaković, what was his last name, was sitting. They spent the whole night hitting us, especially Nikola in the ribs area, although he was a pretty strong man he collapsed several times from the beating. Especially ardent was some Marko, that was the name they called him or he had said that was his name. I could tell that he was under the influence of alcohol and so, umm, and that whole night, we were lightly dressed because when you work, you move around, it wasn't cold during the day but the night was difficult. In the morning, before going to the mine field, they allegedly threw some cigarettes at us so we could smoke them and then go grape picking. Before that, they had already selected one villager to go with us and collect any money that people had in their pockets, it was strictly ordered that all money must be taken to the last dinar, to take out if any were left in pockets. The man to my right, poor guy had received his salary some two days before this, he had all his money with him and he asked me what to do.
Tu je bio taj prvi pretres, tu smo probdjeli cijelu noć, naravno uz udaranje i tako dalje, ja se dobro sjećam ovaj detalja, jedan je ubijen, Badanjak Nikola, ovdje, on je sjedio kraj mene s jedne strane, s druge je sjedio Vlado Bošnjak ili Bošnjaković kako se preziva, i oni su cijelu noć udarali ovoga posebno Nikolu po rebrima, tako da je taj čovjek bio dosta jak, više puta je padao dolje od tih udaraca, a tu se osobito isticao nekakav Marko, tako su ga zvali ili tako je on rekao, onako vidio sam da je dosta pod utjecajem alkohola i to i ovaj i sad tu cijelu noć, svi smo bili malo lakše obučeni budući radiš i tako, krećeš se, nije bilo zima po danu nego noć je bila teška i ujutro kada smo prije tog minskog polja, ovaj tu su nam navodno bacili nekih cigareta i tako da popušimo cigarete i da idemo brat grožđe, ali prethodno su oni već odredili tu jednoga mještanina da ide sa nama i da pokupi sve novce iz džepova ljudi i to je baš striktno naglašeno do dinara, tada, do dinara, ovaj, da izvadi, kome ostane, kome se nađe bilo koji dinar u džepu, a ovaj s desne strane moje, jadnik dobio je plaću dan dva prije toga ili nekoliko dana prije, imao sve novce kod sebe i sad mene pita što da on radi.
I said: "Vlado, you can hear what they are telling you, I cannot advise you because I do not know what is going to happen to us",so then, those men they took all the money and afterwards we were beaten some more with various cables, hydraulic pipes and similar, bats, knifes all of it together, and then they left in file to that mine field.
Ja kažem „Vlado, ti čuješ šta ti kažu, ja ti ne mogu ništa savjetovati jer ne znam ni šta će bit sa nama“, i tako da je, ti su pokupili sve novce i iza toga, naravno tu smo bili još batinjani razno raznim sajlama, onim cijevima od hidraulike i tako dalje, palicama, noževima i to sve skupa i tada su u koloni otišli na to minsko polje.
We started from the co-operative, in front of us there was Milan Randulić aka. Buba, he was a Croat from Lovas, he was dressed in a military uniform and carried a rifle. He was walking in front of us and we followed hi, and those soldiers, who were all dressed in the identical camouflage uniforms, they walked beside us with their guns pointing at us forcing us to walk.
Mi smo krenuli iz zadruge, ispred nas je išao Milan Randulić, zvani Buba, on je Hrvat tu iz Lovasa, on je imao vojničku uniformu i pušku i on je išao ispred nas i mi smo išli za njim, a ovi vojnici koji su bili jednobrazno obučeni u maskirnim uniformama, oni su išli kraj nas i sa puškama uperenima u nas vodili.
When we reached the last bend, there Boško Bođanac, who had been stabbed and could no longer walk, he said that he can go any further and one of the soldiers turned around and killed him.
I kad smo došli tu do zadnje okuke, tu je Boško Bođanac, on je bio uboden i više nije mogao hodati i on je rekao da ne može više i jedan se od vojnika okrenuo i ubio ga.
Of course, we had to go on and we kept our eyes in front of us, we were not allowed to turn around, to watch what was happening behind us, one of the soldiers said"Stop. I'll help you" and then we heard gunshots in rapid succession and that man was left there. I think even now a candle is there, that is put there every year at the spot where he was simply executed.
Naravno, mi smo morali ići i gledati samo naprijed, nismo smjeli se okretati, bilo šta gledati šta se dešava iza nas, uglavnom jedan je rekao iz tog špalira vojske koji je rekao „Stani, ja ću ti pomoći, čuli smo samo rafal i taj čovjek je ostao tamo, mislim da ima i sad svijeća ovaj, koja se svake godine stavlja, gdje je on likvidiran naprosto likvidiran.
They killed a man, I saw it myself. in front of me, some ten or so meters , a man fell to the ground, he had been stabbed and he fell to his knees and said that he cannot go on, one of the Chetniks kicked him, the men fell into a ditch and he then shot him.
Ubili su čovjeka, ja sam ga vidio osobno, ispred mene jedno desetak metara, čovjek je pao, bio izboden noževima i pao je na koljena i rekao je da ne može dalje, i jedan ga je četnik šutnuo nogom , pao u kanal i pustio rafal po njemu.
I saw it personally, when he was killed, there was a lot...
To sam ja vidio osobno kad su ga ubili, bilo je puno ..
We stopped because there were mines in front of us, and one of the Chetniks pushed Ivo Kraljević and he fell and the mines exploded.
Stali smo jer mine su ispred, i jedan je četnik gurnuo iza leđa Ivu Kraljevića, njega je gurnuo i on je pao dole i mine su eksplodirale.
Now, I think not many, very few, even one is too much, were killed by the mines but those cowards were shooting us in the back with automatic rifles, I was shot in the leg.
Sada, od mina je jako malo, mislim, jako malo, puno je reći i da je jedan čovjek poginuo, ali od mina nije puno stradalo, nego kukavice te iza leđa, pucale su nam u leđa sa automatima, ja sam dobio metak tu u nogu.
When I fell I saw that I was wounded, i swiped with my hand under me and the hand came out bloody. Next to me was Zlatko Božić, he was having problems breathing, I asked him if he was all right -yes, are you -yes, and a few minutes later he was shouting to kill him and end his suffering a soldier approached him and killed him.
E kad samo pao, vidio sam da sam ranjen, povukao sam ruku ovako ispod sebe , bila krvava ruka, kraj mene je bio jedan Božić Zlatko, on je teško disao, ja sam pitao jesi dobio - jesam, jesi ti - jesam, tako da je on za koji minut vikao da ga ubije da se ne pati i prišao jedan vojnik i ubio ga.
Then I heard, as if through a fog, some vehicle arriving and someone was shouting - what are you doing, what are you doing to those people, here and there, and all in all, those who were unhurt, they stood up, they had to stand up, and those on the road called out - you take a two steps forward, and there you find a mine - they had to demine it, they had nothing to do it with so they had to improvise, using teeth, nail clippers, I do not know what, this is how they demined it.
I onda sam kao kroz maglu čuo gdje je došlo neko vozilo i neki je vikao tamo - šta radite, šta tu radite s tim ljudima, vamo tamo, i uglavnom, morali su ovi kojima nije bilo ništa, oni su se ustali, morali su se ustati, i oni su sa ceste prozivali - ti idi dva koraka naprijed, pa tu nađeš minu - oni su morali razminirati, nisu imali čime pa su se domišljali zubima, grickalicama, šta ti ja znam, tako da su oni razminirali to.
And then we knew that they laid it there because they knew exactly the position of every mine.
I mi smo onda znali da su oni to postavili jer su točno znali gdje je koja mina.
When we arrived to Šid, we got out and went to the waiting room of Šid Health Centre and thee, not only did we not receive any first aid but we were insulted, there, one seriously wounded man, late Josip Turkalj, he died there.
Kad smo došli u Šid, izašli smo van u čekaonu u Doma zdravlja u Šidu i tamo su nas, ne da su nam dali prvu pomoć, nego su nas više izvrijeđali, i tamo je jedan teško ranjen, pokojni Josip Turkalj, on je tamo umro.
In the waiting room we were bleeding all over the floor.
U čekaonici iz nas je curila krv, slivala se dolje po čekaonici.
There was a man there, I remember well, from Valjevo, they called him Cane, that was the nickname i hears, he said: "you can celerbtate today", meaning the 18th, "as your birthday".
Tu je bio jedan, sjećam se dobro, iz Valjeva je, on je rekao da se, Cane su ga zvali, to sam čuo nadimak, on je rekao „današnji dan, daklem taj 18., možete slobodno slavit kao svoj rođendan.
When we managed to get some body bags from, because we did not have any caskets, I managed to get some body bags from Colonel Lončar, but not enough, so we, um, they pit them in blankets and so on.
Kad smo uspeli da dobijem nešto vreća od, jel nismo imali mogućnosti u sanduke da ih stavljamo, nešto vreća sam uspeo da dobijem od pukovnika Lončara, i nije bilo dovoljno čini mi se, pa smo onda, ovaj, su ih stavljali na, ovaj, čebad i to.
The two of us were alone in Pinzgauer with driver and escort in the front. We arrived there and as soon as we came to Lončar's, he was very, very nervous and he addressed me immediately, because he knew me from before, from Osijek, an acquaintance, you know, we had a contact or two.
I nas dvojica smo sami bili u picgaueru i naprijed vozač i pratioc i došli smo tamo, i čim smo ušli kod Lončara, on je bio vrlo, vrlo nervozan i odmah se obratio meni jer je on mene znao, ovaj , iz Osijeka, iz viđenja, znate, imali smo jedno dva kontakta.
He asked me what had happened, I said "Comrade Colonel the best thing would be for me to get out so you can speak with Lieutenant Colonel, umm, I really do not know what caused this to happen and how or why", and then he looked at the Lieutenant Colonel and nods, and said all right, and I left the room.
I pita me šta se dogodilo, ja kažem „druže pukovniče najbolje bi bilo da ja izađem pa da vi sa potpukovnikom razgovarate, ovaj, reko ja nemam stvarno, niti znam, ni povod ni šta se dogodilo, ni zašto se dogodilo i on kaže, pogleda ovoga, ovaj potpukovnika, i on klimne glavom i ja izađem, kaže dobro.
I was waiting outside, not more then a few minutes passed when Dimitrijević shot out of the room.
Čekam vani, nije prošlo par minuta, ovaj izleti Dimitrijević kao, ovaj, tane iz puške.
Go back, the man, that commander, that Lončar was waiting for me in the hallway, and he just said to me: "Ljuban, I am glad you had nothing to do with this", we shook hands and he turned around and went into his office. He was really shook up by, umm, this event.
Vrati se nazad, čovjek me, ovaj komadant, taj Lončar me čeka u hodniku i, ovaj, samo mi je rekao „drago mi je Ljubane da nemaš s ovim ništa“ pruži mi ruku, okrenuo se i otišao u kancelariju, bio je stvarno potresen, ovaj, tim događajem.
There was a truck parked up there, we used a ladder to carry those dead guys to the truck, where they were, to say so, they were thrown around like logs. The we were brought back to the village, and they parked the car at the village entrance and it stayed there for two days and nights, the blood was dripping from the truck, and it served as a kind of warning , as in see what will happen to the rest of you if there is any sign of resistance.
Bio je kamion tu gore parkiran, s jednim smo ljestvama nosili te mrtve dečke utovarali, nosili do kamiona, gdje su, da kažem, bacani kao klade neke i onda su nas vratili u selo, a kamion su dole parkirali u, na ulazu u selo i taj je kamion bio tu dva dana i dvije noći, tako je krv iz njega curila vani, i to je bila kao neka vrsta opomene, kao da se vide šta će se desiti nama drugima, ako se bude nekih otpora prema njima, šta ja znam.
I mean, it was a crime that really cannot be denied and something that only sick people could do.
Mislim, to je zločin koji je stvarno, ovaj, ne može da se negira i to mogu samo bolesni ljudi da naprave.
Now, here, two months have passed with Lovas under occupation, the mine field event happened and all, and then it was 22nd of December in the afternoon when I was brought here, around 4 o'clock, to the Municipal Hall building, to this basement, I was simply pushed; look at this stairway, see how steep it is, they were waiting for me here, there were people already down there, villagers from Lovas.
Evo sad, ovako, prošlo je već dva mjeseca kako je Lovas bio okupiran, prošlo je minsko polje i sve, i došao je taj 22.12. popodne, kada su me negdje oko 4 sata doveli ovdje, u mjesnu zgradu općine, i u ovaj podrum, su me jednostavno gonili; evo pogledajte ove stepenice, jel, kako su strme, i tu su me dočekali, tu je već dolje bilo ljudi, mještana Lovasa.
The other one simply warped the kitchen cloth like this and hits me in the eyes so I was swollen all over; this left side, the eye, I do not know if you can see my face, it is still slightly deformed, it is permanent.
Drugi namota ovako jednostavno kuhinjsku krpu i po očima, tako da sam sav izbubrio; ova lijeva strana oka, ne znam da li se može vidjeti lice, još uvijek je to malo deformirano, to tako stoji.
And then they begun to beat me, one hit me in the genitals, and the other one was hitting me with, I do not know what was it, a metal rod or a police baton or a baseball bat, and I got it here, i did not know it until I came to Zagreb as a refugee, because we were in the dark.
I onda su me počeli tući, jedan me udario po genitalijama, a drugi me je sa nekim, da li je neka šipka bila ili neki pendrek ili bejzbol palica, i tu sam dobio, to nisam ni znao dok nisam došao u progonstvo u Zagreb, jel bili smo u mraku.
And I fell down on the floor.
I pao sam dolje na pod.
After I came to Zagreb as a refugee, when i removed my clothes for an x-ray, because I had fractured ribs, spleen, face I was simply broken, then I saw that my entire body was black and blue, the colour of blue jeans, my entire body was such because of the beating.
I kad sam došao u progonstvu u Zagreb, e onda kad sam se skinuo za rendgen, jel imao sam i slomljena rebra, slezena, lice, bio sam jednostavno razbijen, onda sam vidio, kompletno tijelo mi je bilo plavo, kao rifle, hlače, kakve su, komplet cijelo tijelo mi je bilo od tih batina.
I remember one of the men, I cannot be sure now who, his name, he said that he was hungry, they took him outside kicked his teeth in completely, and threw him back down, after that no one else dared to say that they were hungry or thirsty.
Sjećam se da je jedan od ljudi, ali ne mogu sada biti siguran tko, po imenu, rekao da je gladan; izveli su ga van i razbili su mu zube komplet i, ovoga, bacili ga dolje natrag, više se nitko nije usudio da kaže ni da je žedan ni gladan.
But in the house, I spent two days in bed and then on 26th of December we had to move out, meaning, they again came to get me in a van of some kind and they drove me to Šid , from Šid to Bjeljina, from Bjeljina we arrived to Tuzla where we spent the night in a school. On 27th of December we went fro Tuzla towards Zagreb, so we crossed somewhere in Bosanski Brod?
No u kući smo, preležo sam dva dana i onda 26.12. smo se morali iseliti, znači, došli su opet po mene nekakvim kombijem i odvezli su me u Šid, iz Šida smo u Bijeljinu, iz Bijeljine smo došli u Tuzlu pa smo onda prenoćili u školi jednoj i znači 27.12. smo iz Tuzle krenuli prema Zagrebu, znači negdje je prijelaz bio na, jel na Bosanskom Brodu?
Or somewhere, it is not important where the crossing was, oh yes in Šamac, Šamac Bosanski and then Slavonski Šamac.
Ili negdje, nije važno, gdje je bio taj prijelaz, Šamac pa da, Šamac bosanski pa Slavonski.
During SAO Krajina Government, what used to be a peaceful and rich village before the war was completely cleansed of its Croatian population.
Za vreme vlade SAO Krajine, do rata mirno i bogato mesto Lovas, gotovo potpuno je bilo očišćeno od Hrvata.
At first families, people that actually run away, who wanted to leave, you know..., later, umm, it was, when those from Western Slavonia begun to arrive, you know... and when the policemen from Serbia begun to investigate, I do not know... from Apatin and Bačka Palanka, that came to the village.
U prvom naletu su porodice, stvarno ljudi koji su pobegli tražili da idu, znate...,a posle, ovaj, je to, kad su počeli ovi iz zapadne Slavonije dolaziti, znate…i kad su počeli istrage da vode, ovaj, policajci iz Srbije, ne znam…iz Apatina i Bačke Palanke, koji su dolazili tamo u selo.
Let's say, today you are being interviewed and at the same time you ask them to give you the paperwork so you could write a request to move out, and we as a police office, I as a police officer I have this printed form that I give to you to sign.
Recimo, danas saslušaju vas, i istog momenta vi ih molite da vam daju papire da napišete molbu za iseljenje, a vi kao policajac, ja kao policajac imam odštampan formular i samo vam dam da potpišete.

STATEMENT
IZJAVU
On 21st November 1991, we had to surrender in order to save civilians. Then, the military police boarded us on trucks towards Trpinja and Bobota.
21.11.1991. godine morali smo se predati radi spašavanja civila, tada nas je vojna policija kamionima vozila prema Trpinji i Boboti.
Some of our people, around 35 of them, were thrown out of the trucks in front of the ŽIVOJINA butcher shop.
Tada je neke od naših ljudi, njih oko 35 izbačeno iz kamiona kod mesnice ŽIVOJINA.
I heard machine-gun shooting, and the people never returned again.
Tada sam čuo rafale, a ti ljudi se više nikad nisu vratili.
Among the people who were taken away were MILE ŠPEHAR and BOŽO MLINARIĆ, whom I knew very well. They were in a truck close to mine. For this reason, I was able to see them, as we had been ordered to keep our heads down, and our hands on our backs.
Među tim odvedenim ljudima bili su i meni dobro poznati MILE ŠPEHAR i BOZO MLINARIĆ, oni su bili u kamionu blizu mene tako da sam ih vidio, inače smo morali imati glavu dolje, a ruke na leđa.
Then, some women and girls were taken away.
Tada su odvedene neke žene i mlade djevojke.
We arrived in Dalj on the same day, around 3 A.M.
Isti dan stigli smo u Dalj oko 3 sata poslije ponoći.

Tomašić states that further in the conversation Bogdan took him to a neighbouring abandoned house and threatened him with an automatic rifle and that he left him there to the custody of an uniformed person unknown to Tomašić.
U daljnjem razgovoru Tomašić navodi da ga je Bogdan odveo u susjednu napuštenu kuću i prijetio mu automatskom puškom, te ga je tamo ostavio na čuvanje njemu nepoznatoj uniformiranoj osobi.
After a short period, Nada's husband, Bogdan, called "Mića", who was dressed in a SMB uniform with Chetnik markings, came and asked Tomašić what he was doing in his house since he was an Ustaša.
Nakon kratkog vremena kući je došao Nadin suprug Bogdan zvani „Mića“ koji je bio obučen u SMB uniformu s četničkim obilježjima te je upitao Tomašića što on radi u njegovoj kući kada je on ustaša.
When he came to the house, he saw that his house had been ruined, and his neighbour, Brković Nada, whose husband was with the Chetniks, came out from the neighbouring house, invited him to come to coffee and rakija, which Tomašić accepted.
Kada je došao do kuće vidio je da mu je kuća srušena a iz susjedne kuće je izašla njegova susjeda Brković Nada čiji se suprug Brković Bogdan nalazio u četnicima, te ga je ona pozvala da dođe na kavu i rakiju, na što je Tomšić pristao.
