Presenting his closing statement, Aleksandar Cvetkovics defense attorney said Cvetkovic didnt participate in the execution of civilians from Srebrenica on the Branjevo Farm in the municipality of Zvornik in July 1995. As such, the defense believes that their client should be acquitted of charges of participating in genocide.

At todays hearing of the Aleksandar Cvetkovic trial, the trial chamber approved a motion by the state prosecution to watch a video recording of testimony previously given by former UN military observer Joseph Kingori. The video recording will be presented to the Bosnian state court at the next hearing.

The Bosnian state prosecution called upon Vlastimir Golijan and Zoran Goronja to testify regarding statements they gave during proceedings which had been previously brought against them by the Bosnian state court.

At todays hearing of the Aleksander Cvetkovic trial, the defense included 44 pieces of material evidence in the case file. Cvetkovic, a former Bosnian Serb fighter, is charged with mass killings that took place during the Srebrenica genocide.

A former serviceman convicted of massacring Srebrenica prisoners said that Aleksandar Cvetkovic, who is also on trial for genocide, was in a barn looking at a pig during the mass killings.

The Defence of Aleksandar Cvetkovic, who is charged with genocide in Srebrenica, plans to examine 18 witnesses and one court expert and present about 40 pieces of material evidence.

Second instance verdicts pronounced by the State Court during the past year indicate that the State Prosecution has been partially successful in proving the gravest war-crimes accusations.

During the cross-examination at Ratko Mladics trial Prosecution witness Drazen Erdemovic is not able to specify how many Srebrenica Muslims were shot on Branjevo farm, near Zvornik, in July 1995.

Prosecution witness Drazen Erdemovic confirms at Ratko Mladics trial that he participated, in his capacity as member of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, in the shooting of between 1,000 and 1,200 Muslim men from Srebrenica in July 1995.

The Appellate Chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina reduces the sentence against Franc Kos, Stanko Kojic, Vlastimir Golijan and Zoran Goronja and sentences them to a total of 112 years in prison for crimes against humanity committed in the Srebrenica area in 1995.
