Experts started clearing the trash dump and removing the first layers of dirt on Monday evening and found the remains early on Tuesday. An estimated 200-thousand people died during the three and a half-year long Bosnian war. Over 20-thousand remain missing. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We got the information two years ago.
