At a pre-trial status conference Prosecutor Cazim Hasanspahic announced that he would examine 23 witnesses and two court experts and present 115 pieces of material evidence during the evidence presentation process.
The former members of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, are charged with having participated in the persecution of the Bosniak and Croat civilian population from the Prijedor area from May to June 1992.
The indictment alleges that men were unlawfully detained in Trnopolje, Omarska and Keraterm detention camps, while women, children and the elderly were forcibly expelled from the Prijedor area.
Mitar and Rade Vlasenko, as well as Koncar, are also charged with murders committed in the Kozarac area in the vicinity of Prijedor.
Zumreta Akagic-Bavcic, Defence attorney of Rade Vlasenko, said that, as part of prohibiting measures, her client was ordered to report to police, but the big distance represented a problem to him, because of his bad health.
She proposed to the Court to relax these measures.
