Bosnian Serbs still living in the Sarajevo suburb of Grbavica on Thursday (14/3) took the highly symbolic step of closing their Serbian Orthodox chapel. Now, as most of the suburb's Serbs have fled to Srpska, the Serb-controlled half of Bosnia, those who remain decided it was time to remove the religious symbols. Outside, men in military uniforms held a short service before carrying off the church bell and the icons. A large wooden cross was carried through Grbavica in a procession, as the bell was rung for the last time.
