"We found one more body. The skeletal remains are mostly complete”, he said adding that teams will continue the activities on Monday.

The director of the (MPI) of Bosnia and Herzegovina Amor Masovic said earlier to the AA that victims were probably prisoners of Prijedor concentration camps, Keraterm and Trnopolje during the last Bosnian war.
