Ivan Mujić comes from Lovas, in eastern Slavonia. He was born in 1954. At the outbreak of the war in the 1990s, he lived with his family in Lovas. On October 10, the day of the fall of Lovas and the beginning of the occupation, twenty two people were killed. Serb paramilitary forces entered the village and started conducting a campaign of terror against the local population, which culminated in the events of October 17, 1991, when a group of fifty one men, aged from 18 to 55, were forced into a minefield. Twenty people were killed. Although seriously injured, Ivan Mujić survived. He was taken to Srijemska Mitrovica for medical treatment, where he remained until December 1. He was subsequently transferred to Stari Slankamen. On December 13 he was allowed to return to occupied Lovas, where his wife and his daughters were. Very soon, thanks to a medical referral for a check-up he managed, along with his wife and children, to reach Zagreb via Bosnia. He stayed in Zagreb for treatment, whilst his wife and children went to Opatija as refugees. He joined them in March 1992. They remained in Opatija until 1999. When proceedings started against those suspected of having committed war crimes in Lovas, Ivan Mujić was a witness during both the investigation and the subsequent prosecution of the crimes at the High Court in Belgrade. In 1995 he was proclaimed unfit for work and has been receiving an invalid pension since. He still lives in Lovas.
