Finnish pathologist Helena Ranta says OSCE mission chief to Kosovo William Walker claimed that Serbian forces had massacred Albanian civilians in Racak in 1999. Ranta says that Walker insisted on this being entered into the pathologist’s report. Ranta speaks out about "Racak massacre" “We all know what William Walker said. He says to this day that it was a massacre and that the Serbs were to blame. But I never said that. I never made any reference to the perpetrators,“ says the pathologist. “I never said a single word about who stood behind what went on in Racak. That’s for the judges to decide, while we forensic scientists just carry out the investigation,“ she tells daily Vecernje Novosti in an exclusive interview. Ranta claims that Walker is “putting words into my mouth“, which was not allowed. “I didn’t agree with him. He was angry with me,“ she says. “What angered him most was that I refused to use the word massacre and say who stood behind what happened in Racak. He was terribly angry about that. He threw a pencil at me,“ Ranta recalls. The pathologist denies the existence of any secret report that Russian journalists wrote about recently. She now claims that the bodies discovered in Racak were the bodies of Kosovo Albanians, but she does not want to say where or how they were killed. “It’s not my place to decide that,“ she stresses.
