Although it was said in August when 16 mortal remains were handed over that another 24 will be returned early this month, only 22 mortal remains are expected to be handed over today at the border crossing point in Merdare.
Prenk Gjetaj from the Kosovo Government commission on missing persons confirmed the news. “As it stands, there are 22 mortal remains, two are questionable as there will be a lot of bones to be reattached to mortal remains returned in August”, said Gjetaj.
On 22 August of this year, Serbian authorities handed over to EULEX 16 mortal remains of Albanians killed in the Kosovo conflict exhumed from the mass grave of Rudnica, Serbia.
