Closed sessions represent the highest level of witness identity protection in the International Tribunal’s practice.

RM-513 is the 79th witness to testify against Mladic since the beginning of the presentation of Prosecution’s evidence in the summer of last year. The trial of Mladic began on May 16 last year.

Mladic, former Commander of the Republika Srpska Army, is charged with genocide in Srebrenica and seven other municipalities, persecution of Bosniaks and Croats throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina, terror against civilians in Sarajevo through long-lasting shelling and sniping activities and taking UNPROFOR members hostage.
