Defence attorney Bajro Avdic said that the material evidence including a death certificate for Mirko Radanovic, extracts from a book titled Crime without Punishment and minutes from on examination of a State Prosecution witness.
Zemir Kovacevic, former member of the Interventions Squad with the First Bosanski Brod Brigade, which later turned into the 101st Bosanski Brod Brigade of the Croatian Defence Council, HVO, is charged with having committed crimes against Serb civilians in Sijekovac village in March 1992.
The indictment alleges that Kovacevic participated in an attack on Sijekovac village, where, acting in collaboration with others, took 15 adults and four Serb children out of their houses into a courtyard. Some of those people were killed.
When the Defence completed the presentation of its evidence, Trial Chamber Chairman Davorin Jukic said that the examination of a State Prosecutions expert witness was the only remaining task before the completion of the evidence presentation process.
The next hearing is due to be held on January 8 next year, when the Trial Chamber will say whether it will present evidence by virtue of office.
