After a ceremony at a stadium, the bodies were buried in 12 different graveyards according to their families's wishes.

Authorities found the victims' remains in 31 different mass graves and identified them by DNA analysis.

Most died in the Omarska prison camp, which was set up by Serbian forces early in Bosnia's 1992-95 war. One was a Bosnian Croat and the rest were Muslims.
