Velepromet en el mapa de Croacia

El Campo de Velepromet fue durante un corto periodo de tiempo un campo de concentración creado durante la batalla de Vukovar por el Ejército Popular Yugoslavo y fuerzas paramilitares serbias en el año 1991, en las afueras de la ciudad de Vukovar en Croacia.

De acuerdo con el Tribunal Penal Internacional para la ex Yugoslavia (TPIY), aproximadamente un centenar de 1.200 personas, en función de las diferentes etapas del conflicto, de etnia croata fueron retenidas en los edificios de la empresa "Velepromet".^[1]^[2]

El campamento en realidad consistía en varios edificios de ladrillo y seis hangares de almacenamiento de estaño, donde se mantuvo a la mayoría de las personas. Los testigos informaron de actos de tortura brutal, golpeando a los presos que se prolongaban durante horas, ejecuciones al azar con ametralladoras y las escenas de personas decapitadas. El campo fue cerrado en marzo de 1992.
