Dmicic and Brkic are charged with war crimes against the civilian population due to murder of two Bosniak civilians.

According to the charges, the then policemen Dmicic and Brkic, who were accompanied by G.D, who has since died, killed Alija Lemes.

It is alleged that, on July 14, 1992 Brkic arrested Lemes in his family house in Kljuc and took him to the Police Station. The three men then allegedly took him to a meadow, about 11 kilometres away, and killed him by opening a burst fire from automatic rifles.

The indictees then buried the body. The remains of Lemes were exhumed in 1998.
