As announced by the Court, they were ordered into custody due to a possibility that they might influence witnesses or accomplices while at liberty.

The Vlasenkos and Koncar, former members of the Army of the Serbian Republic of BiH, were arrested on June 5 due to a suspicion that they killed seven Bosniaks in Kozarac in May and June 1992.

They may be held in custody until July 5.
