147 Bosnian war victims laid to rest

Some of those killed had been tortured or starved to death in detention camps.

"It's horrible to have a funeral for so many people, killed only because they were Muslims. What happened here will never be forgotten," said Harisa Trto, 50, quoted by AFP news agency.

His brothers, Nizret and Emir, were among those being mourned at the ceremony in Prijedor.

After the ceremony, the victims' bodies were taken for reburial in local cemeteries by their families.
