Nerva's mother gave him a number plate with the number 1128, then she died: Diane Budisavljević found her real name on the list 80 years later

An 80-year-old man named Živko has finally discovered his true identity after a long search. He was born in 1942 and spent time in a Nazi concentration camp before being taken to a rehabilitation center for deaf-mute children in Zagreb. He was adopted by Mato and Marija Zelenbrz in 1942. Recently, a document from Diana Budisavljević, who rescued thousands of Serbian children from Ustaša camps during World War II, was found in the Museum of Genocide Victims. The document revealed that Živko’s real name is Živko Ivančević, son of Ljubivoj from Krišćina and Smilje from Voćina. He was identified through number 1128, which he had retained since childhood. Živko now knows his biological parents’ names, where he came from, and his true history, though he remains content with his new identity as a Zagreb resident.
