Monument to the victims in Pougarje

Pougarje

Pougarje today belongs to the municipality of Dobretići between Jajce and Travnik. Many Pougarje residents have been through the Golgotha of the Way of the Cross, and many unfortunately did not live to see its end.

In this way we remember the victims of Yugoslav Communism in Pougarje from World War II and publish a list of victims. The main source for the list of victims was the death register of the parish of Dobretić, thus many are not on this list, because if they were not registered by the family there at the time, it is unlikely that they can be found here. The war was everywhere and it was not possible to know if someone had survived and there was no way to find out, especially because the Pougarci were overwhelmingly (almost all) on the side of the newly established Croatian state (NDH).

Many mothers and wives believed that their fathers, husbands, sons and brothers were still alive. There were very few survivors of the Way of the Cross and Communist torture in the post-war period. There is an example of a woman from Kričić, who fasted for her husband for five years, but, unfortunately, he never showed up. Moreover, if the victim was not married, there was no interest in questioning him and initiating legal proceedings for the land because no one was there to divide it. Thus, many victims were forgotten.

Here is a list of the victims that were found:

Drinske mučenice

AUTHOR

Anto Baković - EN

PUBLISHER

Own edition

PLACE AND YEAR OF PUBLICATION

Zagreb, 2013.

After years of research, searching, recording and collecting data, Don Anto Baković wrote and gave our public a book in which he himself, as an eyewitness, described the martyrdom of five Catholic nuns in December 1941, in Goražde. This book is a credible account of the event. In addition to the book of the aforementioned individuals, from whom he collected testimonies and thus managed to follow our Drina martyrs step by step from Pale to Goražde, he also collected important details of that martyrdom from individuals whose names, at their request, he had to keep secret for the time being. And then there is his personal testimony!

Martyrium Croatiae

PLACE AND YEAR OF PUBLICATION

Zagreb, 2009.

In his youth, Don Anto Baković was accused four times and sentenced to a total of ten years and three months in prison. He served time in the divisional prison in Leskovac, the Military Investigation Prison in Niš, the Niš KPD, the Zenica KPD, the Sarajevo Central Prison, the Travnik District Prison and the Foča KPD. Completely innocent, he spent his entire youth in Tito’s prisons. He was sent to prison for the first time for defending Stepinac, and imprisoned the second, third and fourth times for his priestly activities, work with children and youth and mentioning the name Croat! He notes that he did not do or say anything against the then state or Tito! He did not engage in any politics, and he spent the best years of his youth in Tito’s prisons.

The book describes the priestly journey of Don Ante Baković from his first parish of Koraća in Bosnia and Herzegovina, on the roof of Bosnia, i.e. at 1300 meters above sea level, to his early retirement to save him from further severe persecution and imprisonment by Tito’s criminal communist regime.

On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the suffering of Zrin, a monograph entitled ”Zrin – in memory of the victims of genocide” by Damir Borovčak, a patriotic activist, political analyst, organizer, travel writer, publicist and historical researcher, was presented to the public. This large-format, high-quality work on almost 400 pages aims to tear the horrific Partisan crimes against the innocent population of ancient Zrin from oblivion. This book was published on the occasion of the 80th anniversary. On the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, on September 9 and 10, 1943, the Partisans and Chetniks killed almost a third of the inhabitants in a genocidal campaign, burned the parish church of the Finding of the Holy Cross, as well as the entire village. All survivors were displaced by the communist authorities, confiscated their property and prohibited from returning to Zrin. In addition to historical facts and numerous documents and photographs, the book also brings invaluable written testimonies, confessions of the survivors of Zrin and the actors of those terrible events.

The second Croatian edition contains previously unpublished transcribed interviews about the killings on the Bleiburg Field and British aerial photographs of the multitude of refugees in Austria around the town of Bleiburg and other refugees near the town of Klagenfurt on the Viktring Field, which are still little known in Croatia. The comprehensively structured university study based on contemporary primary sources focuses on two important questions. First, did the so-called “final battle of encirclement” take place in Carinthia in the areas of Ferlach/Hollenburg/Viktring and Dravograd/Poljana/Bleiburg, resulting in military victories for the Yugoslav Partisan Army (JA), or had the Partisans already committed murders on Austrian territory? Were the post-war battles the battles of refugee groups with the aim of reaching the British, or were these battles the great finale of the JA?
