Veselin Vlahovic, alias Batko, has appealed against his lengthy sentence for a campaign of murder, rape, torture and robbery against Bosniaks and Croats in Sarajevo in 1992.
The Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina files a custody order motion for Goran Vujovic and Miroslav Duka, who are suspected of crimes in Bileca in 1992, due to a possibility that they might influence witnesses and interfere with the investigation.
The Bosnian prosecutor urged the court to convict former Bosnian Serb fighter Zoran Dragicevic of rape, abuse and robbery in the Sarajevo settlement of Grbavica in wartime.
As the trial for crimes in Grbavica continues, the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina presents material evidence in an attempt to prove that Zoran Dragicevic, known as Krompir, was a member of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, and that he was among the people from whom police searched in the summer of 1992 due to crimes committed in Grbavica.
Testifying at the trial for crimes in Sarajevo, a prosecution witness says another witness told her that she had been raped by indictee Zoran Dragicevic, known as Krompir.
Testifying in defence of four indictees at the trial for crimes in Trusina, a witness says that Nedzad Hodzic and Rasema Handanovic were among the persons who participated in the murder of several captives who had been lined up against a wall.
A witness at the war crimes trial of Zoran Dragicevic testified that she felt intimidated into having sex with the Bosnian Serb soldier, but said she was not violently attacked.
Detainees were beaten, humiliated and murdered by detention camp guards in the Sarajevo suburb of Hadzici, a witness told a war crimes trial in the Bosnian capital.
A State Prosecution witness says at the trial for crimes in Hadzici municipality that he was detained in 1992, because he is a Serb, and that he was held in detention until 1996.
The State Prosecution believes they have proven that Veselin Vlahovic known as Batko is guilty of all offences, as outlined in the indictment. They stated, furthermore, that even the highest sentence possible for these offences is not sufficient to punish Vlahovic for the reign of terror he brought to the Sarajevo neighborhoods of Grbavica, Vraca and Kovacici in 1992.
