Serbian War Crimes Prosecution ordered an inspection of the site at location Rudnica called ‘Padina 1’ and ‘Padina 2’, which are suspected of being mass-graves of Albanians killed during 1999 conflict.
It is about the fourth order of the prosecution for inspection of location Rudnica, where 45 bodily remains have been discovered so far and which are believed to be of Kosovo Albanians. Parts of the quarry Rudnica near Raska (Serbia proper) were inspected in 2007 for the first time. Inspections have later been suspended and re-opened three years later and in 2011 and 2013. New excavations on the location are set to start today at 12:00.
Case Rudnica was launched by the protected witness who informed Eulex that bodies of murdered Albanians were brought to old quarry back in 1999, whereas the terrain was later filled with the soil and partially asphalted.
