Davor Martinovic, lawyer of the defendant, said that because of the Defence’s concept he will not start presenting evidence before Emir Djulic and Enver Grebovic, the last witnesses for the prosecution, are examined.

“The Defence won’t start presenting its evidence because its defence strategy is an alibi,” said Martinovic at the status conference held at the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Remzija Smailagic, prosecutor for the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, informed the Trial Chamber and the Defence of defendant Mikulic that witnesses want to testify, and that they are “awaiting details regarding the establishment of a video-link”, but could not specify the exact timeframe.

The prosecutor explained that Djulic and Grebovic want to testify, but due to financial problems cannot come to the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the United States.

The Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina charged Mikulic, as a member of the military police of the Croatian Defence Council, with treating imprisoned civilians inhumanely in Dretelj (municipality of Capljina) between early July and late August 1993.

The indictment specifies that Mikulic, acting alone or along with other persons, took part on several occasions in the torture of prisoners in a brutal, vicious and humiliating way, inflicting them with severe physical and emotional pain, which sometimes resulted in death.

Since it is not known when the witnesses will be examined, Stanisa Gluhajic, presiding judge of the Trial Chamber, announced that the resumption of the trial would be set for a later date.A.J.
