POST-CONFLICT DETENTIONS
From July 1999 to mid-2000, scores of "disappeared"
persons were held in a separate ad hoc network of
locations. All are presumed to have been killed. A small
number became "victims of organised crime", their
kidneys extracted for use by an international
organ-trafficking ring (see section 3.3.2. of Report).
MOVEMENT OF CAPTIVES
Captives abducted from Kosovo were brought over the
porous border. Gradually smaller numbers were "filtered"
for onward transportation, including by ethnicity and
health condition. Some captives passed through several
"waystations" before being delivered to the end point
operating clinic.
