Men were also raped in war by Serbs in Kosovo: My testimony is missing from two UNMIK police officers

Early in the spring of 1999, the worst event to experience even a 32-year-old man, making him part of about 20 thousand people who claim to have been sexually violated during the Kosovo war.

My family and I remained isolated inside one house for days after moving to another. All this to save from the worst war can bring.

News.net brings a story of a sexually violated male during the recent Kosovo war, while also bringing about institutional and social treatment of these persons.

It's been for days, no one's ever dared to get out. We were alone in that food we had reserved and we ate it. The Serbian military and police after a while made a decision that those citizens who have been stuck in Pristina, should be allowed an identification documentation to come out of buying bread. We've gone, the few citizens we've left, and we've got those documents. Sadly, or IDs or letters given to Serbian forces had been for the identification and slaughter of all those Albanian families remaining in Pristina. We didn't know. We don't have days for what they are. We got those papers, we went out to buy bread that date. It was March if it wasn't wrong. ”

But continuing to stay completely closed was impossible, but it seems to be better for him. Unfortunately, during the war, even satisfying the need for survival was the beginning of the horror that lives briefly but long.

The “Since the road from ... has been blocked by the Serbian paramilitary forces, has been in total blockage. The only way we had to get to the store was by the way... It was the only state store in..., today where the mention of... was “...” or state store. There was bread, food, who had the financial opportunity to buy. When I come to ..., I'm a tour of the Serbian paramilitary forces. And that day, my life is over. I've been summoned to the Serbian language: “Come on handsome” I got two legs broken. I'm close. I've been rushed. Where are you going, why are you out? I was put in charge of the paper they gave us to buy bread. That's where my balls start beating, I've got a lot of slaps. As long as I've been stuck in the slide. I've been told why she's gone to Albania? I said I'm not leaving Albania. I'm out of my country. One of them, as I remember today, told me why you're lying, why are you lying? It's just because of fear. I've been beaten like that, I've been picked up, I've been taken to the restaurant was “...”, that world, in front of the “theater...” ”

Beated and tortured, he was thrown into the spaces of a basement, as long as he was facing the worst, which happened to some women in that country.

I've been forced into this place by force, beaten, and tortured. When it comes down there, it's just, like, today I remember... it's a couple of girls, or two women, or two fairies, half naked. When we said half naked, he's a friend. There's one of their associates, a young man or who was, told another, they were beating him there, on the other hand, you weren't doing my work... you did the job as we were told. Now what he was, whether he was their accomplice or was kidnapped like I didn't know. ”

We between the inhuman beatings of psychic torture by three people, and in the presence of these two Albanian women, he had been sexually violated.

I've been tortured, I've been forced, I've almost been laid down, and one of my paramilitaries has been stuck around my neck and another person has taken a spray, the same one told me to talk about it to you and they have told a paramilitary guy with a nickname of war, that was a real name or a nickname of war, I don't remember. I know it was Ante or Anice. You do our job the way you do. That's where the fuck he's gonna pull my ass off and start raping me. My fever was very, very extreme in that world. In those moments of God or who has come, there has come a patrol of the Serbian or Yugoslav police, and it's nalla and the theme is certainly heard and shouted in Serbian: Prepare, how the Lord kills you! To understand that there has been a chain of command, even a chain of command of the army or the paramilitary and comfortable police that has been the military chain of command. That position when he took it, and... the order when he was taken has been on his pants when I, I, I, in a coma the day he was programmed by the state. It means rape has been programmed to degenerate a people. Do you understand? So it was programming. It has been, it has been that there is not enough of Serbian forces and paramilitary forces only killing and crime of Albanians, that they have also wanted to violate this people. ”

After the act of rape, in serious physical condition, he was released by a Serb soldier to take a journey without a destination, until the burden of the event had made him unable to perceive the overall situation.

I was raped by a officer who took me out, I'm out naked. That's where I took the run and I went... I don't mind going, bleeding up to... Last night 24 hours, by tomorrow, you can't get out of a river. I don't dare, I've got nights on the river.

I was just saying, "I'm having sex again" for S. Massi sighed, early tomorrow in the afternoon, went home, had a family, and I went to market with my friend what happened to me. Childhood, which has grown up, measures a market time for both children and children. ”

The family announcement of the event was less of a burden to him. But it did not ease the unfathomable consequences that left them, [while] they followed them.

I'm in miserable condition, I can never communicate in my life to relax. I've been so sick, I've been in a lot of depression, do you understand? You often shouldn't live with kids anymore, do you understand? Yeah, I've always had my family and my kid left me because I wasn't there today. The market's clear. ”

He says that this serious event has also left major consequences after the war.

Very, very, very bad. Very much so it's a job and it's gone. There's nothing more to God or anything. I can always tell my tongue has saved me, that I can do my language. Cooperate with them with your tongue. Because I speak Serbian-Croat, that has saved me. Physically, I'm a mess, all my life. I'm still in the mess today. I don't know him well anymore, absolute. Not from the mental issue, no health, nothing. The only thing left was my family, my wife, my healthy child. I am receiving treatment often at the hospital in Pristina, a coma received treatment during the United Nations administration in UNMIK.”

Unlike most sexually violated during the war, this man has not chosen to keep everything quiet. During the war, he had announced his case while continuing to seek justice and proper treatment even after the war. I was in the UNMIK office of “...” Those files, those evidence's completely lost to a German and a Russian cop, you know. Before Albanians, I have also witnessed in UNMIK. Yeah, all of it, when the coma went to ask no one. ...I've announced during the war that the case was taken from the people of the nation, the people of the state who have been. Even during the war, I have announced the case. The next day, about a day or two, I've gone and found one of the refugees and I've been able to describe what Serb forces have done to the Albanians. After the murder, after torture, after all. That the police and the Serbian Army have also violated people, have violated women and men. And he wrote it, thanks to that man, he found me after the war in various interviews, he found me many times. He's been trusted by police agencies, investigators, prosecutors. I used to give these interviews to the state, do you understand? They always talked about the truth. Now I feel free that I enjoy status, I enjoy a pension, no matter how good it is to me. That's all the state can possibly do. Yeah, tell the world all the time.

fascist Serbia has committed inhumane crimes in Kosovo. That killing me is when it's a state machine and it's programmed in the state. That's what gave me state responsibilities. ”

Medical treatment, psychologist, and other professionals, he had done so for years without receiving any direct support from institutions. This was up until 2014, when it was announced at the Kosovar Centre for the rehabilitation of Torture Survivors, where it is continuing to be assisted in treatment.

And in 2017, with the decision of the Government of Kosovo, the Government Commission for Recognition and Verification of the Status of Displaced Persons was established, while the first applications for recognition of this status were made in 2018.

From that period until the beginning of 2022, 1,645 people have applied to gain that status, resulting in financial support worth of 230 euros a month.
