Bosnian Croats and muslims returning to the Sarajevo suburb of Ilidza for the first time since the beginning of the war took time from inspecting their former homes on Tuesday (12/3) to visit the graves of their loved ones. It has been more than three years since Muslims and Croats have been able to visit Ilidza's main cemetery, where Muslims,
Catholics and Orthodox Christians have always been buried in separate sections of the graveyard. It was from this cemetery that many Bosnian Serbs exhumed their dead to take with them when they fled the suburb in advance of Tuesday's handover to the federation authorities. The visitors even found the body of a Serb woman carefully wrapped in a blanket and plastic sheet, ready to be transported away.
