 Although some remains were located by experts in 2003 thanks to testimony from survivors and a confession by Damir Ivankovic, until 2009 the whereabouts of most of the victims remained unknown.The bodies were thought probably to have been buried in mass graves in various locations of Bosnia and Herzegovina.After no serious investigation to locate the missing persons or bodies was undertaken by the authorities, in September 2008 the Advocacy Center – TRIAL (ACT) Project lodged six individual applications before the European Court of Human Rights in relation to the disappearance of eight Bosniak men during the massacre at Mount Vlasic, on behalf of their relatives.
