The district court decided to renew the trial on February 1, 2016, since Vesna Antonic, a member of the trial chamber, has been appointed the president of the Supreme Court of Republika Srpska. A new trial chamber member will take her place.
Kajdic and Rokvic, former members of the Bosnian Serb Army, have been charged with abducting a Bosniak civilian from a school building in the village of Gornja Puharska, near Prijedor, and killing him. The murder took place in mid-August 1992. The victim’s body has never been found.
The indictment against Kajdic and Rokvic was filed in May 2015.
