The exhumation of Muamer Zukorlić; Usame for B92.net: The saddest day PHOTO / VIDEO

The exhumation and autopsy of the body of the former president of the Party of Justice and Reconciliation Muamer Zukorlić began today at 12 o'clock, based on the decision of the High Court in Novi Pazar.

His son Usame Zukorlic told B92.net that this was the most difficult moment for the whole family.

It should be reminded that the High Court approved an international expertise composed of forensic autopsy experts from Belgrade, Sarajevo and Hamburg.

Usame also told B92.net that his father will be buried at 5 p.m., after the exhumation and autopsy are over. However, as he added, his father will be buried in the harem of the Altun-Alem Mosque in Novi Pazar, and not in Orlje near Tutin, where he was exhumed. "From the moment he was buried in Orlje, in accordance with the family wishes, we have suffered pressure from friends and public opinion because we allowed the great man to be buried far from the city. Dear God ordered an exhumation to take place. So, it gives us an opportunity to make things right, amending a historical mistake and bury the Mufti in the harem of the Altun-Alem Mosque, along with other greats, as he deserves", Usame added. The exhumation is being carried out in the presence of the director of forensic medicine from Sarajevo, Professor Nermin Sarajlić, and Professor from Hamburg, and four security rings were placed around the place where Muamer Zukorlić was originally buried during the exhumation, while journalists were not allowed closer access.
