Former Republika Srpska President Radovan Karadzic, who is charged with genocide against Bosniaks and Croats and other crimes in Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH, gives up on testifying in his defence before the International Tribunal at the Hague.

Testifying at Radovan Karadzics trial, Momcilo Gruban, former Chief of a guard shift in Omarska detention camp, that he and policemen, who were under his command, tried to help hundreds of Muslim detainees as much as we could within the frame of our authority.

Several hundred former detainees from Prijedor and their families have gathered in Omarska to commemorate August 6th, the day when the disassembly of this camp began 18 years ago.

The High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina has enacted amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code of Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to prevent war-crimes indictees from being released after conviction.

The Defence teams of three indictees charged with crimes committed in Prijedor present first-instance verdict appeals.

Survivors of the notorious Serb-run detention centres in north-west Bosnia and their families are continuing their campaign for a memorial centre to record their suffering.

As proposed by the third indictee's Defence, the public was excluded from the testimony of the last witness at the trial for crimes in the Omarska and Keraterm detention camps.

Additional Prosecution witnesses say the third indictee participated in the beating of detainees in Omarska and Keraterm.

The defence for the four men indicted over the Omarska and Keraterm camps in north-west Bosnia has denied they took part in the crimes committed there in 1992.

The public was excluded during the discussion on protection measures for additional Prosecution witnesses.
