Darko Trifunović (Serbian: Дарко Трифуновић) is a lawyer and professor at the Faculty of Security Studies of the University of Belgrade, where he has specialised in the study of Islamic terrorism.[1] He prepared a widely criticised report for the Republika Srpska (Bosnian Serb) government which denied that there had been a massacre at Srebrenica during the Bosnian War.
Srebrenica massacre report controversy
In September 2002, the Bosnian Serb government's Bureau for Relations with the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia issued Report about case Srebrenica: The First Part.[2][3] The report, prepared by Trifunović, asserted that the Srebrenica massacre of August 1995 had never happened, that only about 1,800 Bosniaks had died at Srebrenica (in combat rather than in a massacre) instead of the 7,000-8,000 reported by international investigators and that only about 100 had been killed in summary executions.[4] The report was strongly criticised by the international community and human rights institutions.[5] The ICTY had ruled a year earlier that nearly 8,000 Muslims had been murdered in an act of genocide and convicted General Radislav Krstić for his involvement in the crime.[6] Two years after the report was issued, the Bosnian Serb government finally admitted the scale of the killings.[7]
