The plea hearing in the case against the two indictees was postponed yesterday as well, because Defence attorneys Fahrija Karkin and Muhidin Kapo failed to appear.

The two other indictees in this case – Aziz Susa and Tarik Sisic pleaded not guilty at the hearing held yesterday.

The Prosecution of BiH charges Muhamed and Tarik Sisic as well as Drakovac and Susa, with having participated in an attack on Serb civilians, who were moving from Gorazde towards Rogatica on August 27, 1992, when several persons got killed.

The indictment alleges that Muhamed Sisic was Commander of the Reconnaissance Squad with the so-called Kukavicka Company of ABiH, while the others were members of this Squad.

Drakovac is also charged with having committed murders, torture and mutilation of a civilian and prisoner of war with an axe in the Foca area in late 1992.
