Police arrested former Bosnian Serb Army soldier Tadi Mitrovic, who has been charged with committing a crime against a Bosniak civilian in the village of Glogova, near Bratunac, in 1992. State Investigation and Protection Agency police on Tuesday arrested Tadi Mitrovic, who is suspected of having committed a crime against humanity in Glogova on May 18, 1992.

More than 50 Serbs, including three young children, were killed in an attack by the Bosnian Army on the village of Josanica near Foca in December 1992, but no one has yet been brought to justice for the crime.

The UN court in The Hague has rejected a request from former Bosnian Serb political leader Radovan Karadzic to reconsider a decision refusing him an appeal against the final sentence convicting him of genocide and other wartime crimes.

The OSCE criticised the Zenica-Doboj Canton’s decision to honour former Bosnian Army Third Corps commander Sakib Mahmuljin, who is on trial for failing to stop Islamic volunteer fighters torturing and killing Serb prisoners.

Mourners laid flowers at the site of a wartime massacre at the Markale market in Sarajevo, where 43 people died in an artillery attack by Bosnian Serb forces in August 1995. The 24th anniversary of the massacre at the Markale market in Sarajevo was marked on Wednesday with a minute’s silence and the reading of the names of the 43 Sarajevo residents who were killed there on August 28, 1995.

The Mechanism for International Criminal Tribunals in The Hague has not yet decided in which country Radovan Karadzic will serve his life sentence after his conviction in March for genocide and other wartime crimes.

Former Bosnian Serb special police brigade commander Goran Saric, who was acquitted of involvement in the Srebrenica genocide, said that the killings of Bosniaks in July 1995 happened, but questioned whether the massacres were planned in advance.

Witnesses at the Hague retrial of former state security officials Jovica Stanisic and Franko Simatovic, which offers the last chance to assess the role of Serbian units in the wars in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, often testify behind closed doors.

Final convictions have been significantly lower in the past two years, and the Bosnian prosecution has not been investing invest time and resources in investigating the most complex cases, said an OSCE report.
