Rich People Paid to Kill in Sarajevo
Introduction
Some reports say rich people from other countries came to Sarajevo. They paid money to shoot innocent people during the war from 1992 to 1995.
Main Body
A man named Zvonko Horvatincic helped these people. He brought them from Croatia to Serbian areas. These rich people paid different prices to shoot different people. They paid more money to shoot women and children. Some soldiers saw these people. They wore strange clothes and used expensive guns. They did not know the city, so they needed guides. One man from the US army told a court about this in 2007. A movie from 2022 also talks about this. A secret officer said he saw rich people from the West shooting people from hidden places.
Conclusion
Serbian soldiers say this is not true. However, Italian police started a new study in 2025 to find the truth.
