According to the indictment, Hodzic and Salcin, members of the Zulfikar detachment of the Bosnian Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, tortured, beat and sexually abused Serb and Croat prisoners, cut off body parts and carried out other other inhuman acts at Igman, south-west of Sarajevo, in 1993.

One prisoner died from the consequences of the abuse.

The victims were Serbs brought from the Silos and Krupa detention camps in the Hadzici municipality near Sarajevo, and Croats brought from the Musala camp in the town of Konjic.

This is the second indictment filed against Hodzic and Salcin. They are already on trial, with four other defendants, for crimes committed in the village of Trusina near the town of Konjic.
