Presenting its closing statement at the retrial of former Territorial Defense members Fikret Planincic, Sead Menzil and Mirsad Vatrac, the prosecution called for a guilty verdict. The prosecution insisted the trial chamber consider the death of civilians and girls while deliberating the sentence.

After determining that it is incomprehensible, the Appellate Chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH, quashes a first instance verdict, under which Fikret Planincic, Sead Menzil and Mirsad Vatrac were sentenced for crimes in the Kotor-Varos area.

The Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH, proposes to the Appellate Chamber of the Court of BiH to pronounce longer sentences against Fikret Planincic, Sead Menzil and Mirsad Vatrac, who were sentenced, under a first instance verdict, to a total of 33-and-a-half years in prison for crimes in Serdari, Kotor-Varos municipality.

Four ex-members of the Kotor Varos territorial defence force were jailed for a total of 43 years for involvement in the killing of 16 Serb civilians in the village of Serdari in 1992.

The Bosnian State Court has postponed the passing of two high-profile war crimes verdicts to January next year.

Four former Bosniak Territorial Defence fighters accused of attacking the village of Serdari in 1992, when 16 Serb civilians were killed, called for not guilty verdicts as their trial concluded.

Presenting his closing statement at the trial for crimes committed in Kotor-Varos, the Prosecutor says that it has been proved that the indictees participated in an attack on Serdari village, requesting the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina to sentence them in accordance with the law.

The presentation of evidence for crimes in the Kotor-Varos area in 1992 has been completed with the presentation of material evidence by the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Defence.

As the trial for crimes in Kotor-Varos continues, indictee Sead Menzils Defence witnesses say that, in 1992 they signed statements about events in that area after having been captured by members of Serb forces and that they signed them under pressure.
