‘We were deported to Tuzla later that day by bus. The buses were parked near thecompound. A Dutchbat soldier with an interpreter stood between the refugees and thewaiting buses. The Dutchbat soldier said to the refugees – through the interpreter - thatthe men and the women had to go to different buses. A group of men already stoodwaiting by the buses. They were surrounded by a group of armed Dutchbat soldiers.Dutchbat soldiers were walking about everywhere in the company of Serbian soldiers.Together they separated the men from the women. I was also separated from myhusband. I never saw him again.’261. Plaintiff Hotić states (Exhibit 5):‘I saw with my own eyes how Dutchbat soldiers kept water from the refugees and whenthey wanted to take some they took it away again just to pester them. Dutchbat soldiersand Serbs stood together at the bus and in front of the refugees. It was a group of fiveor six Dutchbat soldiers.The transportation was subsequently done with buses and trucks. I was then with myhusband, the wife of my brother and the two daughters of my brother. All the men werethen selected. The Dutchbat soldiers did not participate in the selection, they justsupervised it. Both Serbs and Dutchbat soldiers were present at the selection. TheSerbs held a weapon to my husband’s neck and took him away. That was the last time Isaw my husband.I also saw the Serbs take a young boy of about eleven years old out of the group. TheChetniks dragged him away, his mother tried to pull him back. This happened under theeyes of the Dutchbat soldiers. The Dutchbat soldiers did absolutely nothing. Then asoldier said in the Serbian language: “Leave the child”. The young boy was thenallowed to leave with his mother.’262.
