The Bosnian Prosecution asked the Appeal chamber of the Bosnian Court to convict Goran Saric for crime in the Sarajevo settlement of Nahorevo, while Defence demanded his acquittal.
The Appellate Chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH, quashes a first instance verdict under which Goran Saric was sentenced to 14 years in prison for crimes in Nahorevo neighbourhood, Sarajevo.
The Prosecution and Defence presented the Appellate Chamber of the Court of BiH with their appeals against a verdict pronounced in August 2013, under which Saric was sentenced to 14 years in prison for crimes in Nahorevo neighbourhood, Sarajevo.
Former Serb police officer Goran Saric said he was innocent of war crimes in the Sarajevo settlement of Nahorevo in 1992 as the court announced it would deliver its verdict in August.
The state must pay more than 380,000 Marks (190,000 Euros) to former war crimes indictees as compensation for the time they spent in custody before being acquitted by the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. However many of the former indictees are still unhappy.
