Milovanovic was found not guilty of going to the village of Resagici on May 8, 1992, accompanied by a group of members of military, paramilitary and police formations, participating in an attack and giving an order to burn houses which women and children were forced to leave.

The judge said the prosecution had not been able to prove the allegations against Milovanovic.

“The only thing the state prosecution has proved is the fact that Milovanovic was a reserve policeman, but it has not managed to prove that he was a superior officer in his unit or to whom he could issue orders.

The witnesses said that a reserve policeman could not act as a superior officer,” said presiding judge Darko Samardzic said.

The court found that it was undisputed that the attack on Resagici happened on May 8, 1992, but the prosecution could not prove that the defendant was there.

The verdict can be appealed.
