Doboj massacre

[6] Many of the non-Serbs who were not immediately killed were detained at various locations in the town, subjected to inhumane conditions, including regular beatings, rape, torture and strenuous forced labour.

Four different types of soldiers were present at the rape camps including the local Serb militia, the Yugoslav Army (JNA), "Martićevci" (RSK police forces based in Knin, led by Milan Martić)[6] and members of the "White Eagles" paramilitary group.

[6] It has been documented within the UN investigations of Doboj, the incarceration of Bosnian and Croat women in a former Olympic stadium housing complex was the site of the mass rapes.

In its verdicts, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) found that the Serb forces were found guilty of persecution of Bosniaks (through the commission of torture, cruel treatment, inhumane acts, unlawful detention, the establishment and perpetuation of inhumane living conditions, the appropriation or plunder of property during and after attacks on non-Serb parts of the town, the imposition and maintenance of restrictive and discriminatory measures), murder, forced transfer, deportation and torture as a crime against humanity in the Doboj area.

[9][10][11] Stojan Župljanin, an ex-police commander who had operational control over the police forces responsible for the detention camps, and Mićo Stanišić, the ex-Minister of the Interior of Republika Srpska, both received 22 years in prison each.

[13][14] The Tribunal concluded: [Stanišić and Simatović] shared the intent to further the common criminal plan to forcibly and permanently remove the majority of non-Serbs from large areas of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

[15]It also concluded: The Trial Chamber noted evidence that during the operation in Doboj, forces under Radojica Božović’s command acted in coordination with the JNA, which was under the authority of Slobodan Milošević at that time.
