TUZLA, May 23 (FENA) - A roundtable on the topic: Tuzla Gate - killing of youth in 1995 - unpunished crime has been held today in the premises of the Kapija Memorial Center.
The organizers of the roundtable are the Center for Research of Modern and Contemporary History Tuzla and the Institute for Research of Crimes against Humanity and International Law of the University of Sarajevo.
In his introductory speech, prof.dr. Izet Šabotić stated that we currently have non-prosecution of those responsible for the crime and systematic denial of the committed crime.
“Failure to prosecute those responsible for the crime leads to dissatisfaction with justice, and denial is opening the wounds of the victims again. It is an integral part of the systematic work of certain services, unfortunately also of some scientific institutions that want to change the past in all possible ways, and we must fight against lies and untruths,” says Šabotić.
Dino Kalesić, who was wounded at Kapija, and who lost his 3.5-year-old son Sandro, took part in the roundtable. Kalesić says that he is tired of stories that have been told for years, but that it is everyone's obligation to keep the story of the Gate in the focus of public and that the truth about the Gate and other similar places in Bosnia and Herzegovina be written in school textbooks.
