Although the majority of religious figures personally involved in atrocities committed their crimes in raids on the Bosnian countryside, the largest and most notorious concentration camp in the country, Jasenovac, was for a time run by a former Franciscan friar, Miroslav Filipovic, who not only directed, but actually took part in acts of torture and mass murder. At his trial he confessed to personally supervising the murders of thousands of Serbs, Jews, and Gypsies. In 1943, Filipovic was replaced as concentration camp commandant by another former priest, Ivica Brkljacic.
