The witness code-named SM-112 said that, as a member of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, he entered transcripts of recorded conversations into a notebook, while the tapes were sent to the command.
 
In the witness’s notebook, the entry from July 14, 1995, says that the person whom he identified as one Jokic asked over the phone for “Ostoja”, and demanded that he get back to him immediately.
 
Asked by the defence whether he knew who Ostoja was, the witness said he did not know, and that these were the assignments for the operative centre.
 
Ostoja Stanisic and Marko Milosevic are on trial for the murder of around 1,000 people from Srebrenica committed in mid-July 1995 at the Petkovic dam in the Zvornik municipality.
 
According to the indictment, Stanisic was commander of the Sixth Battalion of the Zvornik Brigade with the Drina Corps, and Milosevic his deputy.
 
The trial will resume on October 22.
