The trial of Ibro Merkez, Predrag Bogunic and Esef Huric for crimes against Serb civilians in Gorazde will open on March 24.

The Bosnian state court has confirmed an indictment against Ibro Merkez, Predrag Bogunic and Esef Huric, charging them with war crimes against Serb civilians in the Gorazde area.

The prosecution charged three former policemen with involvement in the illegal detention and inhumane treatment of over 100 Serb civilians in Gorazde during wartime, some of whom died.

Three people including a police commander were arrested on suspicion that they detained and mistreated scores of Serb civilians, some of them children, in Gorazde, Rudo and Visegrad in 1992-93.
