Genocide in BiH Archives

The prosecution at the UN tribunal in The Hague appealed against Bosnian Serb military chief Ratko Mladic’s verdict, calling for him to be convicted of genocide in five more Bosnian municipalities in 1992. The prosecution on Thursday announced its appeal against the first-instance verdict in Ratko Mladic case, calling on the UN court to further convict him of genocide against Bosniaks and Croats in five more municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Two UK-based professors have asked to present an analysis carried out with artificial intelligence-inspired software of Radovan Karadzic’s alleged intent to commit genocide in Srebrenica at the former Bosnian Serb leader’s appeals hearing in The Hague.

Appeals in the case against Bosnian Serb President Radovan Karadzic, who was convicted of genocide and crimes against humanity under a first-instance verdict, will be heard in late April.

Posters of former Bosnian Serb military chief Ratko Mladic have been put up at a municipality building in East Sarajevo, in what the mayor said was a gesture of support for the war crimes defendant.

The Hague Tribunal prosecution urged the UN court to reject Bosnian Serb military chief Ratko Mladic’s request to be released to Serbia to undergo medical treatment while his appeal against his conviction is being considered.

Former special police commander Goran Saric was acquitted of involvement in genocide in Srebrenica in 1995 as the court ruled he was not necessarily aware of the plan to murder the town’s Bosniak population.

Former Bosnian Serb Army chief Ratko Mladic’s defence asked the UN court to annul the verdict sentencing him to life imprisonment for genocide and other crimes because his mental faculties are impaired.

Despite some shortcomings, the Hague Tribunal, which closes this month, has identified and prosecuted those responsible for grave crimes and brought some justice to people who suffered, said members of Bosnia’s Association of Victims.

The conviction of Ratko Mladic was overdue justice, but the full reckoning with the Serbian political project that he took to its genocidal extreme is still nowhere to be found.

The UN court in The Hague convicted former Bosnian Serb military chief Ratko Mladic of the genocide of Bosniaks from Srebrenica, war crimes and crimes against humanity, and sentenced him to life imprisonment.
