Admir Buljubasic had to wait for 20 years before he could bury his father. Hamdija Buljubasic was one of eight thousand men who were killed in the Bosnian town of Srebrenica, when Bosnian Serb forces captured the town on July 11 1995. 
The mass killings that took place during a few days later came to be described as genocide. In order to hide the traces, the remains of the dead were spread in mass graves in the Bosnian forests around Srebrenica - just a few bone remains of Hamdija Buljubasic were found.
On 11 July 2015, in the 20-year-old memorial day, he was buried in Potocari where thousands of other victims of the massacre lies.
- I will never forgive those who killed my father, said Admir Buljubasic who today lives in Borås.
