Summary/Abstract: With a clear, planned and deliberate intention and purpose of committing different forms of crime against humanity and international law,including the crime of genocide against Bosniaks, the aggressor established and organized many concentration camps and places of illegal imprisonment of Bosniak civilians in the area of Višegrad during the period of 1992-1995.There, physical and mental torture, abuse and ill-treatment, as well as the killings of prisoners were committed continuously and daily. In addition to men, women, children and the elderly were taken to the camps, which isa clear proof that the aggressor did not choose whom to capture and place in numerous camps and places of unlawful imprisonment in the area of Višegrad. Dozens and hundreds of Bosniak civilians from Višegrad were captured and imprisoned in the camps, where many were killed or were succumbed to injuries as a result of severe torture and abuse. It was just one of the ways for complete extermination of Bosniaks from the area of Višegrad and to create ethnically clean territories on the Drina River. The scope, scale and characteristics of crimes against Bosniaks from Višegrad,including the imprisonment of civilians in concentration camps, require a detalied elaboration of the treatment of the aggressor against detained civilians, which included constant torture, abuse, as well as the killings.The testimony of survivor inmates is also of great help in confirming the seclaims.
