They were organised in the so called "Vukovar squad" under the command of an unknown reserve officer of the Yugoslav National Army (a lieutenant) and Ostojić became the squad leader.
Potom su organizirani u tzv.
After several months while Ostojić was visiting his wife in Belgrade he learned that something (meaning killings) other than the mere dislodgement of the non-Serbian population happened in Sotin because his wife told him that she spoke with a friend from Zagreb (he did not know her name and surname) who asked her what happened to "Seka", who to Ostojić's knowledge was driven away from her home in Sotin several months before that and was already supposed to be in Zagreb.
Nakon nekoliko mjeseci, kako navodi predmetni dok se nalazio u posjeti kod supruge u Beogradu saznao je da se dogodilo nešto /misli na ubojstva/ mimo samog protjerivanja nesrpskog pučanstva, jer mu je njegova supruga rekla da je tijekom dana razgovarala sa svojom prijateljicom iz Zagreba /ne zna ime ni prezime/ koja ju je pitala što je sa "Sekom", koja je bila po saznanju predmetnog protjerana iz mjesta Sotin prije nekoliko mjeseci, te je po svim saznanjima od predmetnog već trebala da se nalazi u Zagrebu.
Ostojić stated that he had learned about the murders of non-Serbian inhabitants of Sotin a year after it happened (December 1991), but that he still did not know who had been killed and who was missing, nor who ordered and executed the deportation and the killing of non-Serbian inhabitants of Sotin. He presumed that the "liquidation" list was drawn up by Serbian inhabitants of Sotin unknown to him.
Predmetni navodi da je za ubojstva mještana nesrpske nacionalnosti saznao putem javnog pogovora tek nakon godinu dana od dana događaja /12. mjesec 1991.g./ ali da ni dan danas ne zna koje su sve osobe ubijene odnosno koje se osobe vode kao nestale, kao niti tko je naredio i izvršio odvođenje i ubijenje osoba nesrpske nacionalnosti mjesta Sotin, a predpostavlja da su sam spisak "likvidacije" pravili njemu nepoznati mještani Sotina srpske nacionalnosti.
He further added that before the forcible displacement of the non-Serbian population in November 1991 he helped ten Croatian inhabitants of Sotin to leave the town by providing blank passes for them (as president of the community council of Sotin he had plenty available) and taking them with the official van to the train station in Šid. Some Serbian inhabitants of Sotin gave him a hard time because of that upon his return.
Predmetni također navodi da je u periodu prije nasilnog iseljavanja nesrpskog pućanstva, tijekom mjeseca studenog 1991.g. prevezao, odnosno pomogao izlazak iz mjesta Sotin desetorici mještana hrvatske nacionalnosti na taj način što ili je sa službenim kombijem uz bjanko propusnice za izlazak iz mjesta Sotin /kojih je imao više kao predsjednik MZ Sotin/ prebacio u mjesto Šid i to na željeznički kolodvor, nakon čega je, kako navodi, imao problema po povratku u mjesto Sotin, od strane mještana srpske nacionalnosti.
When asked whether he knew the locations of mass and individual tombs in the area of Sotin, he responded that he did not know them and that he did not even learned anything in public.
Na upit da h" su predmetnom poznate lokacije masovnih i pojedinačnih grobnica na području mjesta Sotin, predmetni je naveo da mu nije ništa poznato niti je što čuo putem javnog pogovora.
He added that the Serbian inhabitants avoided him because he helped many Croats leave the town.
Isti je kako navodi bio izbjegavan od strane mještana srpske nacionalnosti jer je pomogao mnogim Hrvatima iz mjesta Sotin.
He also presumed that the Serbian inhabitants of Sotin, who still live there, did not know who was responsible for the murders, nor the locations of mass and individual tombs in which non-Serbian inhabitants were buried.
Predmetni također predpostavlja da mještani Sotina srpske nacionalnosti
Ostojić said that on that occasion he did not see any killings of the inhabitants of Sotin nor was he aware that there were any killings at all.
Predmetni također navodi da tom prilikom nije vidio da su vršena ubojstva mještana Sotina, niti mu je poznato da je bilo ubojstava.
Ostojić stated that he did not witness nor did he he hear who was responsible for the murders. He also could not indicate possible witnesses who might have information on the murders and the locations of mass and individual tombs.
Predmetni također navodi da on osobno nije bio svjedokom, odnosno očevidcem, kao niti je čuo tko je izvršavao ubojstva, niti može ukazati na možebitne svjedoke koji bi imali određena saznanja u vezi ubojstava i lokacija masovnih i pojedinačnih grobnica.
