“I plead not guilty,” Susnjar said.
He is accused of involvement in the killings of 57 Bosniak civilians from the village of Koritnik who were forcibly detained in a house in Pionirska Street in Visegrad, which was then set on fire.
Susnjar and other Bosnian Serb Army troops and members of paramilitary groups then opened fire at the house to prevent the civilians from escaping death, the prosecution alleges.
He was extradited to Bosnia and Herzegovina on June 24 from France, where he had lived for many years.
