Bosnian War

Belgrade told the International Court of Justice that it didn’t have effective control over the Yugoslav People’s Army and local Serb fighters accused of committing genocide in Croatia.

At the trial for wartime crimes at Bosnian Serb detention camps in Vogosca near Sarajevo, a forensics expert said exhumed victims’ remains showed signs of violent assaults.

THE HAGUE - The Serbian legal team began presenting its defence arguments concerning Croatia's genocide suit in the continuation of the dispute before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Monday, and in the next few days it will present Serbia's countersuit for the genocide committed against Serbs in Croatia in the clashes from 1991 to 1995.

BELGRADE, THE HAGUE – Sasa Obradovic, Serbia’s chief representative before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the Croatia-Serbia genocide case, said after Croatia had given its oral argument that evidence presented by the country is rather “thin and weak.”

"Nikolić not subject of trial before ICJ"

ZAGREB -- Vesna Pusić says there was "no talk in any sense of the word" at the International Court of Justice about the current Serbian authorities' involvement in wars.

Two Bosnian Serb brothers convicted of abusing Bosniak prisoners near Sarajevo in 1992 asked the appeals court for lower sentences because of the “absence of fatal consequences”.

Slobodan Milosevic was behind a joint criminal enterprise to force Croats from Serb-controlled areas of Yugoslavia, Zagreb argued in its genocide case against Belgrade at the International Court of Justice.

At the trial of two Bosnian Serb soldiers for the Srebrenica genocide, a prosecution witness said that he saw many dead bodies laid out at the Petkovci dam near Zvornik in July 1995.

An ex-prisoner told the trial of four former Serb guards accused of abusing inmates at the Batkovic camp in north-east Bosnia in 1992 that one guard hit him for around ten days in a row.

BELGRADE - No genocide was committed during the war in Croatia, and even Serbia and Croatia are aware of this, Florence Hartmann, a former spokesperson for the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, has said, adding that the two countries' mutual genocide lawsuits will be dropped by the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
