Documents on the Genocide of the Roma in Serbia
The documents are part of the Yugoslav State Commission for the Investigation of the Crimes of Occupiers and their Supporters (SCICOS) investigation on the crimes committed against the Roma and the Jews in Leskovac. The file preserves testimonies about the mass-shooting of 296 male Roma on December 11, 1941, reports by both collaborationist and post-war Yugoslav authorities. The testimonies had been collected mostly between April and June 1945 by SCICOS special local commissions. They were used for collecting datas about the number of victims and for writing a report about the racial persecution of the Roma in German occupied Serbia.
