Witness Broke his Leg
The trial before the Cantonal Court in Sarajevo of Mario Frimel, who is charged with crimes against Serb civilians in Sarajevo, has been postponed as a Prosecution witness is not able to appear in court.
Trial Chamber Chairman Jasenko Ruzic said that witness Branko Toholj broke his leg, so he would need a month to recover. He said that the witness would be invited to testify at a later stage.
The Sarajevo Cantonal Prosecution charges Mario Frimel, former Commander of the Ivan Krdnelj Squad with the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ABiH, with having unlawfully arrested and physically and mentally abused Serbs in Hrasno neighbourhood, Sarajevo.
According to the charges, at the beginning of October 1992 members of the Ivan Krndelj Squad brought Serb individuals to the shopping centre premises and abused them.
The trial is due to continue on April 10, when two Prosecution witnesses will testify.
