===Srebrenica massacre report===

The governmental report, prepared by Trifunović, asserted that the in massacre 1,800 Bosnian Muslims had died at Srebrenica by on that time know information's.

===Media Coverage===
Dr.Darko Trifunovic stated:" Bosnian Serb Police is '''"Only Institution" Entity's Citizens Trust"''' In Bosnia-Hercegovina everything to do with war crimes committed by the Serbs has been revealed, but there is an empty space where war crimes committed by Muslims and Croats against Serbs are concerned. The Serb Republic MUP is supposed to prepare the indictments, as it recently expanded the indictment for war crimes committed by Rasim Delic. If we were to abolish the Serb Republic MUP, there would be no one in Bosnia- Hercegovina to prepare and effect indictments for crimes committed against Serbs. Some joint bodies have been formed on the Bosnia- Hercegovina level, such as the State Border Service , the intelligence service SIPA ... but those are dead bodies. Recently there was a case of a Muslim, a member of the DGS, killing his Serb colleague. That service cannot function the way it was envisaged. And the OSA , a kind of FBI, has only Croats and Muslims in top-ranking positions, but not Serbs. The Serb Republic police is the only institution that the citizens of that entity trust. Imagine if suddenly France and Germany had been forced to improve their relations immediately after World War II. There would have been plenty of bloodshed ref .
