At the trial of Oliver Krsmanovic, who is charged with crimes in Visegrad, a protected State Prosecution witness says that she heard that the indictee was present in Rodic Brdo village when the men were taken away, and that he participated in the rape of one person.

Three days after the flight of Dusan Jankovic, the State Court says that situations like this one point to the weaknesses of legal provisions in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The first-instance Trial Chamber sentences Momir Savic, who failed to appear for the reading of the verdict, to 18 years in prison for crimes committed in 1992 in Visegrad.

Defence witnesses of Momir Savic and Savic himself claim the indictee did not participate in crimes committed in Visegrad in spring 1992 but instead protected his neighbours.

At the trial for crimes committed in Visegrad, the Trial Chamber renders a decision on the protection of a Defence witness.

Defence witnesses describe the situation in Visegrad during 1992. The Defence of Momir Savic, a former member of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, who is charged with crimes committed in Visegrad, examined three witnesses, who described the situation in the municipality in early 1992. Witness Miloje Indjic told the Trial Chamber that in April 1992 […]

A Defence witness says that his late father told him that Momir Savic had done whatever he could to protect Muslims from "all kinds of paramilitary groups" in the Drinsko area.

Due to the examination of a protected witness the public was excluded from the hearing at the Visegrad crimes trial.

Momir Savic pleaded not guilty to the counts charging him with crimes against humanity in Visegrad in 1992.
