An ex-detainee told the war crime trial of former Bosnian Serb soldier Novak Stjepanovic that female captives were taken from the Sase mine prison camp near Srebrenica in 1992 to be raped.
The Bosnian state court has asked Serbia to take over the prosecution of wartime Bosnian Serb soldier Novak Stjepanovic, who is accused of rape, sexual abuse and the killing of civilians in the Bratunac area in 1992.
Novak Stjepanovic, who is charged with war crimes committed in Bratunac, has again failed to appear before the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, causing the plea hearing to be postponed.
