Siege of Srebrenica

The state court in Bosnia-Herzegovina's capital, Sarajevo, is set to deliver its verdict on October 9 on whether Bosnian Muslim wartime commander Naser Oric is a war criminal.

Oric, 50, is accused of war crimes against three Serb prisoners of war who were murdered in the Srebrenica area in 1992.

The trial of Naser Oric, the Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica who is accused of killing Serb prisoners of war, centred on a key witness’s testimony - but was it true or false?

The Dutch government has asked the Supreme Court to overturn a ruling finding it partially liable for the deaths of around 300 Bosniaks from Srebrenica killed after being expelled from a Dutch UN peacekeepers’ base.

The remains of six people suspected to be Bosniak war victims have been discovered in a mass grave near the eastern Bosnian town of Vlasenica, and the bones of several more found in Koricanske Stijene.

The defence lawyer in the high-profile trial of the Bosnian Army’s former commander in Srebrenica, Naser Oric, urged the court to acquit him of killing three captive Serb soldiers in 1992.

As the politically-charged trial of former Srebrenica commander Naser Oric nears its end, the Bosnian prosecution argued that he should be convicted of killing three captive Serb soldiers in 1992.

Serbia’s war crimes prosecutor filed a motion to restart a landmark trial of eight former Serb policemen for the Srebrenica massacres after it was halted when an appeals court threw out the charges.

The Humanitarian Law Centre NGO said it will file criminal complaints against Serbian officials involved in handing over Bosniak refugees from Srebrenica who fled to Serbia to Ratko Mladic’s forces.

Today marks 22 years since the forces of the Army of the Serb Republic entered Srebrenica on July 11, 1995 and committed a war crime.

According to the judgments of the international court, genocide was committed in Srebrenica, and about 8,000 people were killed.

The state appeals court upheld the 13-year sentence handed down to former Bosnian Serb military policeman Zeljko Stanarevic for his participation in the killings of at least ten Bosniak civilians in 1992.
