Of the 74 people convicted by the Hague Tribunal of wartime crimes in the former Yugoslavia, 49 of them are already out of jail, most of them after being granted early release.
The Hague Tribunal has wholly or partly paid for the defence of most of the suspects tried for wartime violations, but cannot reveal the amount of money actually spent.
The United Nations, UN Security Council has extended the mandate of Hague Tribunal judges and called on the Tribunal to undertake measures in order to complete the cases conducted before the Tribunal by the end of 2014.
After an investigation determined that indictee Radovan Karadzics family has movable assets and real estate, the Hague Tribunal Registrar orders him to bear a part of costs of his defence to the amount of around 300,000 KM.
