Edib Buljubasic, who is charged with crimes committed in Dretelj military prison, near Capljina, fails to appear in court in order to testify in his defence.
The State Court rejects an indictment under which the Prosecution of Bosnia and Herzegovina has charged Ivan Zelenika with having committed war crimes against Bosniak civilians in the Mostar area.
The continuation of the trial for Dretelj crimes has been postponed until August, as indictee Edib Buljubasic refuses to appear before the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, BiH.
Testifying at the trial for crimes in Dretelj, Vinko Martinovic, known as Stela, says that the military police was in charge of detainees in a military dispensary and that he never even entered the Dretelj premises.
Testifying in defence of Edib Buljubasic, who is charged with crimes in Dretelj military barracks, a witness says that the Commander of military police of the Croatian Defence Forces, HOS, headed the barracks.
Sasa Stolic's statement saying he underwent surgery with no anaesthesia while he was imprisoned in the Dretelj camp was read out at the trial of former members of Croatian Defence Council (HOS).
As the trial for crimes in Dretelj continues, Defence witness Miroslav Hrstic says that he was an ordinary soldier and that he did not have a commanding function within the Croatian Defence Forces, HOS, but indictee Edib Buljubasic says that this is not true.
