Omarska
KNOWLEDGE OF Omarska
Omarska is a locality near Prijedor in northwestern Bosnia and Herzegovina. It includes an old iron mine and ore processing plant.
Omarska gained worldwide infamy as the location of a detention or Omarska concentration camp set up by the authorities of the Republika Srpska during the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia. It was officially termed an investigation centre and the detainees were Bosnian Muslim and Croat men that the Serbs accused of paramilitary activities.
The award-winning documentary Calling Ghosts (Prozivanje Duhova), 1996, portrays that women were also held in the Omarska camp. 36 women were detained, where they were raped, starved, and forced to work. Once the news of the camp spread internationally with the camp director claiming there were no women there, most of the women were let go, forced to walk 20km until they reached Prijedor, where their homes had been taken over and inhabited by Serbs.
