The court in Sarajevo on Tuesday accepted a prosecution appeal and sent Babic for a retrial.

The former military police commander was acquitted in December 2013 of ordering, taking part in and failing to stop the illegal detention and abuse of non-Serb civilians in the Vuk Karadzic school in Bratunac in 1992.

The judge at his trial said that Bosniak and Croat men from Bratunac were illegally detained in the school, where they were abused, but ruled that the prosecution failed to prove that Babic had command responsibility over the guards at the school.

The court said on Tuesday that the acquittal was revoked because of a violation of the criminal proceedings code, but gave no further details.
