Kondic, who is charged with crimes in the Kljuc area, suffers from Parkinson’s disease. He also had a stroke. The court experts determined that the indictees’s condition had deteriorated in terms of motor control of his movements.

“His legs are totally paralysed. His hands are shaking, so he is not capable of dressing himself or eating,” Dr. Enra Mehmedika-Suljic, said at the status conference. Mehmedika-Suljic conducted the expert examination of the indictee in collaboration with neuro-psychiatrist Abdulah Kucukalic.

She pointed out that the indictee was taking maximum doses of medication at present and that the Parkinson’s disease was expected to progress even more now, following five years of treatment.

The Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH, charges Kondic with having participated in organizing a group of people and fostering genocide, as well as crimes against humanity and war crimes in Kljuc municipality, in 1992.
At this hearing the Prosecution requested that the proceeding against Kondic be continued irrespective of the court experts’ findings.
