Shortly after his captivation, two unknown uniformed Chetniks came to the basement and took Gombović Mato away for an unknown reason after which he did not see them any more, while his younger son was killed by the Chetniks in Negoslavci, something Tomašić overheard from the guards while they were talking between themselves.
Nedugo od njegovog zarobljavanja u podrum su došla dva nepoznata uniformirana četnika koji su odveli Gombović Matu iz njemu nepoznatog razloga nakon čega ih više nije vidio, a njihovog mlađeg sina četnici su ubili u Negoslavcima, a to je Tomašić čuo od stražara kada su međusobno razgovarali.
Tomašić states that he did not bury anyone he knew, nor that he knew who murdered them.
Tomašić navodi da od osoba koje je sahranio nije nikoga poznavao, niti je znao tko ih je pobio.

Tomašić stated that the Chetniks in the company "Velepromet" were talking that they drove the killed civilians to the old brickyard, but after few days they took them outdoors and drove them to some fish-pond, but he does not know which one.
Tomašić je izjavio da su četnici u poduzeću „Velepromet“ pričali da su ubijene civile odvezli u staru ciglanu ali nakon nekoliko dana su ih izvadili napolje i odveli na neki ribnjak, ali on ne zna koji.
That night, upon the arrival of Šešelj, bursts and moans of people could be heard, but not up until the morning Tomašić was he able to tell what happened, not until he saw dead civilians stripped naked, stacked in five rows of height and fifteen meters of length; about three hundred people.
Tu noć po dolasku Šešelja čuli su se rafali i jauci ljudi ali Tomašić sve do jutra nije znao što se dešavalo sve dok nije ugledao mrtve civile svučene do gola naslagane u pet redova visine i petnaest metara dužine, oko tristo ljudi.
During the inspection of the captives Šešelj killed one civilian with a knife by slitting his stomach open.
Šešelj je pri pregledu zarobljenika nožem ubio jednog civila tako što mu je rasporio trbuh.
After that, the bus continued further and Tomašić stayed lying on the ground for about twenty minutes because he did not know what was happening.
Nakon toga autobus je nastavio dalje a Tomašić je ostao ležati oko dvadesetak minuta jer nije znao što se dešava.
Furthermore, Tomašić stated that the bus stopped 50 m before the railway that leads to Negoslavci, and an armed Chetnik told them that all Ustashas are to come out of the bus, which Tomašić did and threw himself in the corns, while the uniformed Chetnik shoot above him.
Nadalje, Tomašić je izjavio da se autobus zaustavio 50 m ispred pruge koja vodi za Negoslavce, a naoružani četnik im je rekao da sve ustaše izađu napolje, što je Tomašić uradio te se bacio u kukuruz, a uniformirani četnik je pucao iznad njega.
The following day Tomašić entered the bus together with the other civilians who used to be with the Chetniks before but who took their uniforms off, while there was only one person who was uniformed and armed with an automatic rifle branded "Zastava".
Naredni dan je Tomašić zajedno s ostalim civilima koji su se skinuli a prije su bili u četnicima ušao u autobus, a samo je jedna osoba bila uniformirana i naoružana automatskom puškom marke „Zastava“.
He came to Šid after a two-day and two-night hike and went to the Red Cross in Šid, because he had a voluntary blood donor ID with him, and there he asked what happens with the refugees from Vukovar.
U Šid je došao nakon pješačenja od dva dana i dvije noći te je otišao u Crveni križ u Šidu, jer je uza se imao knjižicu dobrovoljnog davatelja krvi, te je tamo pitao što je s izbjeglicama iz Vukovara.
Further in the conversation, Tomašić stated that he could not go to Osijek because everything around was mined, so he decided to go on foot in the direction of Šid.
U daljnjem razgovoru Tomašić je izjavio da nije mogao ići za Osijek jer je sve naokolo bilo minirano, te se odlučio krenuti pješice u pravcu Šida.
Tomašić spent one night in the Red Cross where he was interrogated. In the morning hours they released him and gave him a ticket to Novi Sad.
Tomašić je u Crvenom križu boravio jednu noć gdje su ga ispitivali, a u jutarnjim satima su ga pustili te su mu dali prijevoznu kartu do Novog Sada.

JNA came, he did not leave the hangar in which he was accommodated, because they did not let him go and they beat him often.
JNA nije izlazio iz hangara u kojem je bio smješten jer ga nisu puštali, te su ga često tukli.
Among the persons who beat him, Tomašić recognized Crevar Ljuban who was a policeman, but Tomašić does not know where he was working.
Među osobama koje su ga tukle Tomašić je prepoznao Crevar Ljubana koji je bio policajac, a Tomašić ne zna gdje je radio.
After a short authentication, Tomašić was driven to Bačka Topola.
Nakon kratke provjere Tomašića su odvezli u Bačku Topolu.
When Tomašić came to Serenči Ilonka, he asked her to provide him with a passport so he could cross the Republic of Hungary, and from Hungary to Croatia.
Kada je Tomašić došao kod Serenči Ilonke od iste je tražio da mu ishoduje pasoš kako bi mogao prijeći Republiku Mađarsku, iz Mađarske u Hrvatsku.
Ilonka provided Tomašić with a passport with which he went to Budapest, Republic of Hungary wherefrom he went to the Republic of Croatia to a shelter in Samobor.

They drove us into a hall and separated some people.
Tu su nas utjerali u neku halu i odvojili poneke ljude.
There, among the Chetniks, I recognized GRUJO AMIDŽIĆ, a lawyer from Vukovar. He was carrying a book under his arm and calling some people aside.
Tu je medu četnicima bio GRUJO AMIDŽIĆ - advokat iz Vukovara, pod rukom je nosio knjigu i odvajao ljude.
ZDRAVKO MAČVAN, a former policeman from Vukovar, and DORĐE UZELAC,chief of the police station in Vukovar, were with him.
S njim je bio MAČVAN ZDRAVKO - bivši milicajac iz Vukovara i DORĐE UZELAC -načelnik milicijske stanice u Vukovaru.
They called some of our people aside by pointing fingers at them and taking them away.
Oni su odvojili naše ljude, tako što su prstom pokazivali na neke ljude i odvodili ih.
After midnight on 22nd November 1991, it started to rain. My group was taken out to be shot.
22.11,1991. godine poslije pola noći počela je padati kiša, moju grupu su izveli na strijeljanje.
ZDRAVKO MAČVAN lead me out by saying:
Mene je izveo ZDRAVKO MAČVAN tako što je rekao:
"Get out, you Ustasha!"
"Marš ustašo".
Six more people were brought out in my group, however, I can not remember their names.
Sa mnorn je u grupi izvedeno još 6 ljudi, ali im se imena ne mogu sjetiti.
The second group was brought out by DRAGAN NIKIĆ and SAVA SAVIĆfrom Savulja.
Drugu grupu je vodio NIKIC DRAGAN i SAVIC SAVA sa Savulje.
MAČVAN took us to a meadow, on which there were two tractors, one with digging tools attached, and the other was used for backfilling, but I was forbidden to look right or left.
Odveo nas je MAČVAN na neku livadu, tu su bila dva traktora, jedan je imao na sebi alal za kopanje, a drugi za zagrćanje, ali nisam smio gledati lijevo ni desno.
A large grave pit had been dug out there, and there were many bodies already in it. In front of me, there was a group of people, lead by SAVIĆ. I watched him kill them all with a Kalashnikov. The people were arrayed along that ditch. When someone was shot, the body fell into the pit.
TVi je bila iskopana velika grobnica u kojoj je bilo već dosta ljudi, »ispred mene je bila grupa koju je vodio taj SAVIĆ, gledao sam kako ih je sve! pobio iz kalasnjikova..p ljudi su biU postrojeni uz taj kanal - grobnicu i kako je kojega strijeljao tako se tijelo rulilo u tu grobnicu.
After he killed those people,another group of about 15 people arrived, lead by DRAGAN NIKIĆ from Savulja and a man named SAVIĆ.
Kada je te ljude pobio došla je druga grupa od oko 15-est ljudi, njih je vodio NIKIĆ DRAGAN sa Savulje i neki SAVIC.
While I was standing and awaiting my turn, I saw DRAGAN NIKIĆ cutting those people with a chain saw.
Dok sam ja stajao Čekajući na red, vidio sam kako taj DRAGAN NIKIĆ motornom pilom siječe te iste ljude.
As the pit was situated on an ascent, the dead bodies rolled into the pit automatically.
Taj kanal je bio na nekoj uzbrdici tako da su ta mrtva tijela sama se kotrljala u kanal.
With this chainsaw, he cut the people's arms, legs or bodies in half, their heads, whatever he wanted.
On je jednostavno tom pilom ljudima sjekao ruke, noge ili tijelo po polovici, glavu, Sto je htjeo;
I watched those sawed-off body parts falling down and jumping like slaughtered hens.
Gledao sam te dijelove tijela odsječene pilom koji su padali dolje i skakali kao kokoš koju zakoljete.
While I was watching, I did not have any thoughts, I only awaited to be killed, too.
Dok sam to gledao više nisam ništa mislio samo sam čekao da ubiju i mene.
This very DRAGAN NIK IĆ had also slaughtered a blonde young girl in my hall, JELENA, daughter of MILKA JELIĆ, but I do not know her father's last name.
Taj isti DRAGAN NIK ;jIĆ je u mojoj hali zaklao jednu mladu curu, plavušu, JELENA od majke JELIĆ MILKE, ali joj ne znam prezime po ocu.
He had taken her by the hair and lifted her head, hit her very hard with a knife and cut her head off. Then, he had thrown the head over the fence onto a puddle, while the body had remained with us in the hall. Before she had even managed to utter a syllable, the girl had already been dead.
On ju je rukom uzeo za kosu, podigao joj glavu; nožem jako udario i odsjekao joj glavu, ar zatim je bacio kroz kapiju na baru, a tijelo ostalo kod nas u hali/Ta cura nije uspjela niti "a" reći, a već je bila mrtva.
NIKIĆ had then said:
Tada je NIKIĆ rekao:
"I have 500 Ustasha whoreson my conscience, and there is still room for 5000 more."
"Ustaških kurvi imam 500 na duši, a još ih može stati 5000.
While he had been speaking, he had looked me in the eyes.
Dok je to govorio gledao me je u oči.
When it was my turn, ZDRAVKO MAČVAN took a knife and grabbed me by the head with one arm, in order to lift it, while he brandished the knife on my neck with the other. That moment, I fell into the ditch onto the dead bodies, after which he shot me twice with a pistol.
Kada sam ja došao na red tad je ZDRAVKO MAČVAN uzeo nož i jednom rukom me uhvatio za glavu da ju podigne, a drugom rukom zamahnuo nožem po mome vratu i toga časa sam upao u taj jarak, gdje sam pao na mrtva tijela, a on je zatim dva puta pucao iz pištolja po meni.
I still have two bullet scars on my right upper arm.
Tako da i sada na desnoj nadlaktici imam dva ožiljka od metka.
That day, I was saved by the cross on the rosary I was wearing around my neck.
Tog dana me spasio križ na krunici koju sam imao oko vrata.
The cross was out of metal, and it got directly under the blade, so that it was cut almost in half, it remained uncut only on the edge, but it stabbed itself into my neck.
Taj križ je bio metalni i odletio je točno pod nož tako da gaje gotovo presjekao, ostao je,samo na rubu ne,-prerezan, ali se zabio u moj vrat.
After me, another group was arrayed, led by the Chetniks MILAN GOJKOVIĆ, nicknamed "ŠVABO", and ZORAN JEROTIĆ. I am ZORAN's godfather.
Poslije mene je još jedna grupa bite postavljena, koju jelvodio GOJKO VTĆ MILAN zvani "ŠVABO" i JEROTIĆ ZORAN"?četnici, ZORANU sam ja krsni kum.
The dead bodies fell on me and around me.
Njihova tijela su padala na mene i oko mene.
Two bullets went through the
Tada su GNEZDA JOZI dva metka
right ear and part of the neck of JOZO GNEZDA, but he survived.
prošla kroz desno uho i kroz dio vrata ali je ipak ostao živ.
When I was still in the ditch, I felt blood strongly spouting out of my neck.
Tada još u jarku osjetio sam kako mi krv jako Šiklja iz vrata.
It was raining heavily, one could not see sky nor soil. As I did not hear any more shooting, I decided to get out.
Kiša je jako padala, nebo i zemlja se nisu vidjeli, više nisam čuo pucanje i odlučio sam se izvući.
When I tried to come out, I felt the dead bodies rolling lower and lower.
Kada sam pokušao izaći osjetio sam kako se ta mrtva tijela kotrljaju sve niže.
I was crawling out slowly, however, I was surprised when I noticed that someone else beside me was moving.
Polako sam se izvlačio, ali sam se i/.nenadio kada sam primjetio da se još pored mene neko miče.
That was JOZO GNEZDA, who got out afterwards.
To je bio JOZO GNEZDA, koji se izvukao poslije.
When I managed to get out of the ditch, I was spotted by a man on the road.
Kada sam se uspio izvući iz tog jarka, tada me ugledao neki čovjek s ceste.
That was SLAVKO or JOVO from Gumara, who recognized me and said:
To je bio SLAVKO ili JOVO iz Gumare, koji me je preoznao i rekao:
"Grandpa, come here and let me help you".
"Dcda, dođi vamo da ti pomognem".
I came to him, and he looked at me and said:
Došao sam, on me pogledao i reče:
"Look at that hole, what's in it?"
"Kakva ti je to rupa, Što je u njoj".
Then he pulled the cross out of my wound.
Pošao je rukom i izvukao mi križ iz rane.
The blood started spouting out more heavily, and he put a whole package of paper tissues on my wound, bound it and said:
Tada je krv jače šikljala, on mi je tada stavio cijeli paket "paloma" i stegao i rekao:
"Grandpa, go now and don't lift your head, because you have a large wound. Go away as far as you can."
"Dedo, sada idi i nemoj dizati glavu jer imaš veliku ranu i idi što dalje".
I went away from him and came across the military, who picked me up.
Ja sam otišao dalje od njega i naletio na vojsku, oni su me pokupili kod sebe.
They boarded me onto a bus, where I recognized MARTIN SABLJIĆ, one of our people, who had also been captured, while I did not manage to have a look at the others.
Prebacili su me u autobus gdje sam prepoznao MARTINA SABLJICA našeg čovjeka, također zarobljenog, a druge nisam uspio ni pogledati.
They threw me out near the bridge in Bogojevo, along with 24 other men.
Kod mosta u Bogojcvu sam izbačen s još 24 čovjeka.
There, we were met by VESELIN MAČVAN from Bršadin. He took us into a hall, where I saw some young Chetnik boys with cockades nailing young Croatian prisoners on posts by hammering nails through their hands and feet.
Tu nas je dočekao MAČVAN VESELIN iz BrŠadina, odveo nas u neku halu, gdje sam vidio kako neki mladi dečki četnici s kokardama, koji na gredu nabijaju čovjeka tako što našim mladim logorašima kroz ruke i noge zabijaju čavle i prikovali ih na gredu.
I saw that at least a dozen people were nailed in this way.
Vidio sam barem 10-tak tako prikovanih ljudi.
On the side, some older Chetniks with cockades sat and drank brandy, holding axes.
Sa strane su sjedili stariji četnici sa kokardama i bradama i piju rakiju, a u rukama im sjekire.
In a corner next to them, I saw a heap of heads. Only one had long hair, while all the others had a short haircut.
U ćošku pored njih sam vidio nabacane glave, a samo jednu sam vidio duge kose, svi drugi su kratko pošišani.
When I was entering the hall, they told us:
Čim sam u halu ulazio rekli su nam:
"Ustashas, there you see what awaits you. Stand in line immediately."
"Vidite ustaše što vas čeka i odmah stanite u stroj".
An officer named PERICA entered the hall and drove six of us out of the hall and into a bus.
U halu je ušao neki oficir PERICA i nas 6-oricu istjerao van i utjerao u autobus.
We went to Begejci, where I stayed for three months.
Otišli smo u Begejce, tu sam bio 3. mjeseca.
That was in the evening around 23rd November 1991. There were around 1600 of us in the hall, where I stayed for two days, and subsequently, I was transferred to the stationery.
To je bilo negdje na večer 23.11.91. godine, tu nas je bilo u hali negdje 1600, gdje sam bio dva dana a zatim prebačen u stacionar.
There, I found JOZO ZADRO, the father of BLAGO ZADRO, MILAN TURKALJ, BOZO KOVAČEVIĆ and NIKOLA ĆIBARIĆ, who was taken away, because he had had a particularly heavy treatment.
Tu sam našao ZADRO JOZU, otac BLAGE ZADRE, TURKALJ MILANA, KOVAČEVIĆ BOZU, ĆIBARIĆ NIKOLU kojeg su odveli jer je imao posebno težak tretman.
After four days, a very tall young man of 100 kg died between me and JOZO BLAGO, from beating.
Nakon četiri dana momak težak 100 kg, jako visok, njega su toliko tukli da je od batina umro tu između mene i JOZE BLAGE.
Dr. ĐURANAC was there,
Tu je bio dr.
who covered him with a blanket and said that he had died from heart failure, but I saw that his whole skin was full of cracks from the beatings he had received.
ĐURANAC, on ga je pokrio u deku i rekao da je umro od srca, ali vidio sam da je na njemu cijela bunda ispucala od silnih udaraca.
After four or five days, FRANO nicknamed "Crnogorac" died from beating in the same room.
Nakon 4-5 dana u istoj sobi je od batina umro FRANO zvani "Crnogorac".
In the second month, around 21st January 1992, I was transferred to Niš.
Negdje u 2. mjesecu oko 21.01.1992. prebačen sam u Niš.
There, I underwent a bloody treatment. I was taken out and beaten every two days.
Tu sam prošao krvavi put, svaka dva dana sam izvođen i tučen.
My back was full of cracks from the beatings, my legs were blue, and my soles were 20 cm thick.
Cijela leđa su mi ispucala od udaraca, noge su bile modre, tabani debeli 20 cm.
On 22nd March 1992, I was transferred to Sremska Mitrovica.
22.03.1992. godine sam prebačen u Sremsku Mitrovicu.
There, I was beaten up, questioned and threatened.
Tu su me tukli, ispitivali i prijetili.
On 22nd May 1992, I was exchanged in Lipovac.
22.05.1992. godine sam razmijenjen u Lipovcu.
I still have scars on my neck from the slaughtering.
I danas imam ožiljke na vratu od klanja.
The spot cracks open often and somehow fails to heal.
To mjesto mi često puca i nekako slabo zarasla.
There was more, but I can not remember everything.
Bilo je još toga ali ne mogu svega da se sjetim.

Pokušao sam odgoditi -odlazak u vojsku, ali mi je pročelnik Ureda za obranu Antun Pečurlija rekao da se isti ne može odgoditi, te da moram ići u vojsku.

I spent the first two months of my training in Srijemska Mitrovica, where I was trained for marksman on the 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine-gun and the OT-60 armoured transporter, as well as the basic infantry training.
Prva dva mjeseca obuke proveo sam u Srijemskoj Mitrovici, gdje sam prošao obuku za nišanđiju na protuavionskom mitraljezu 12,7 mm, na oklopnom transporteru OT-60 i osnovnu pješadijsku obuku.
On 2nd May 1991, we received orders for a field operation of "securing" the army barracks in Vukovar.
Dana 02. svibnja 1991. godine dobili smo naredbu da idemo na teren na "obezbjedenje" vojarne u Vukovaru.
From the barracks known as

We were lead by the above named Yugoslav National Army officers from Srijemska Mitrovica.
Vodili su nas svi već naprijed navedeni oficiri JNA iz Srijemske Mitrovice.
We went via Šid - Tovarnik - Negoslavci - Oriolik to the Vukovar barracks.
Išli smo putem šid - Tovarnik - Negoslavci - Oriolik -vukovarska vojarna.
We passed through Tovarnik and entered the Vukovar barracks under the pretense of delivering food.
Kroz Tovarnik smo prošli, a u vukovarsku vojarnu ušli pod izgovorom da vozimo hranu.
On the way,
Putem smo se u
In Negoslavci, the officers told us we had to fight for Yugoslavia.
U Negoslavcima su nam oficiri pričali kako se trebamo boriti za Jugoslaviju.
We stationed ourselves in the Vukovar barracks, as we had been told.
U vukovarskoj vojarni smo se smjestili kako nam je bilo i rečeno.
