The Tuzla Prosecution charges Oric, Hamed Salihovic and Azem Ahmic with war crimes against the civilian population in the Srebrenik area.

According to the charges, on July 17, 1995 Salihovic, Oric and Ahmic, the then members of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ABiH, stopped a bus in front of Stevo Tesic’s house in Jasenica village, near Srebrenik and beat Tesic up, causing multiple fractures to him.

During that same night somebody made a cut to Tesic’s neck, which caused bleeding and the death of Tesic. A.H.
