Abduladhim Maktouf’s defense attorney requested that the appellate chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina reduce Maktouf’s sentence from five years to one year in prison.

Abduladhim Maktouf, an Iraqi who fought alongside the Bosnian Army during the 1992-95 conflict, will be retried after the original verdict sentencing him to five years in jail was annulled.
