Testifying at the trial for crimes in Visegrad, a Defence witness says that indictee Oliver Krsmanovic was not present in the yard of the mosque, which was set on fire, but he was in a nearby café.
The prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina entered several items of physical evidence in order to prove the status of defendants Dragomir Soldat, Velemir Djuric and Zoran Babic in 1992 in Prijedor, as well as proof of a broad and systematic attack on non-Serb civilians.
A status conference, which was due to be held prior to the beginning of the trial of Vehid Subotic, who is charged with crimes in Zenica, has been postponed until September 6, because the indictee wants a new Defence attorney to be appointed.
The trial of Vehid Subotic, former member of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ABiH, who is charged with crimes in Zenica during 1993, is due to begin next week, on Friday, September 6.
After having been arrested on Thursday, August 29 and examined in the premises of the State Investigation and Protection Agency, SIPA, due to a suspicion that he committed genocide in Srebrenica in 1995, Goran Saric was released under prohibiting measures on that same day, the State Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirms.
The Hague Tribunal has unprecedentedly removed a judge who criticised the court from Serbian Radical Party leader Vojislav Seseljs trial, potentially putting other war crimes convictions at risk.

As the trial for crimes in the Bratunac area continues, a Defence witness says that no communication system existed in 1992 and that individuals, who had money, could buy walkie-talkie devices.
