Summary

Description
English: Sarajevo, winter of 1992-1993. Dutch journalist Robert Dulmers beside Bosnian deputy prime minister Hakija Turajlić's grave at the Ali Pasha mosque in the centre of Sarajevo. On January 8 1993 Turajlić was in a United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR) armoured personnel carrier crewed by a French unit under the command of General Morillon when it was stopped by Serb gunmen on Sniper Alley. After a 90-minute standoff, a French UNPROFOR officer opened the door, allowing one of the gunmen to murder Turajlić, who was hit by seven or eight rounds from the assailant's AK47. (Peace talks in Geneva were cancelled as a consequence.) A Bosnian Serb, Goran Vasic, later convicted of war crimes against prisoners in the Medjarici concentration camp, was acquitted for lack of evidence. Christian Maréchal photo
