Croatian court sentences two war criminals

Both were members of the Croatian Army and in 1991 participated in operations in the wider Osijek area.

Marguš was found guilty of murdering Svetozar and Vukašin Bulat, and seriously wounding Slaven Bulat, who was a minor at the time of the crime, in November 1991. Marguš gunned down his victims with automatic rifle fire.

Marguš was also found guilty of illegal detention, torture and murder of Nedeljka and Nikola Vico, Stevan and Dragica Gvozdenović and Ljubomir Grandić, also in November 1991.

Additionally, Marguš and Dilber faced a count of the indictment charging them with kidnapping Savo Pavitović from his car in Osijek, in late November the same year, and then taking him to a field in the town’s suburbs, where Dilber shot him.

Since the bullet he fired did not immediately kill his victim, Marguš ordered Dilber to “finish him off”. In his testimony, Dilber confessed he could not bring himself to do that. Marguš, however, could, and both were found guilty of the crime.
