Bosnian police in Sarajevo on Thursday arrested former Bosnian Army soldier Mirsad Tahirovic, who is accused of taking part in crimes against Croat civilians and prisoners of war in Jablanica in 1993.
At the trial of Nihad Bojadzic, charged with crimes committed in Jablanica, witnesses for the defence said that Croat prisoners told them they were not abused.
The Prosecution asked the Bosnian Federation Supreme Court to give a longer sentence to Zehrudin Scuk for crimes against Serbian civilians in Jablanica in 1993.
As the trial for crimes in Jablanica continues, Defence witnesses say that they never heard that Nihad Bojadzic mistreated any of the patients in the war hospital in that town.
Testifying at the trial of Nihad Bojadzic for crimes in Jablanica, three Defence witnesses say that the indictee was skinny and had a beard in September and October 1993.
An appellate session before the Supreme Court of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, FBiH, in order to discuss a verdict under which Zehrudin Scuk was sentenced to six years in prison for crimes in Jablanica, was postponed, because the indictee and his Defence attorney were not able to appear in courtroom.
Testifying at the trial for crimes in Jablanica, a Defence witness speaks about the movement of Nihad Bojadzic, former Deputy Commander of Zulfikar Unit with the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina, ABiH, in July 1993.
Former Bosnian Army soldier Edin Dzeko was jailed for 12 years over the killings of six Croat fighters and a civilian couple in the village of Trusina near Konjic in 1993.
