Following the two postponements of their plea hearings due to absence of their Defence attorneys, Muhamed Sisic and Emir Drakovac have pleaded not guilty to the charges that they committed crimes against Serb civilians and prisoners of war.
At the first plea hearing held on September 24 Tarik Sisic and Aziz Susa, who are also charged in this case, pleaded not guilty.
The Prosecution of BiH charges Muhamed and Tarik Sisic, Drakovac and Susa with having participated in an attack against Serb civilians, who were walking from the Gorazde area towards Rogatica on August 27, 1992. Several people were killed or wounded on that occasion.
According to the State Prosecution’s charges, Muhamed Sisic was Commander of the Reconnaissance Squad with the so-called Kukavicka Company of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ABiH, while the other indictees were members of that same Squad.
In addition to the above, Drakovac is charged with having committed murders, torture and mutilation of a civilian and prisoner of war with an axe in the Foca area in late 1992.
