Bosnian Serb convict dies in Sweden

The war crimes tribunal in The Hague sentenced him in 2004 and rejected an appeal the following year after which he was moved to Sweden to serve his sentence.

"He died from natural causes last night in a hospital in Sweden," said Christer Isaksson, head of security at the Swedish Prison and Probation Service.

Isaksson gave no more details about the circumstances or place of Deronjic's death.

Deronjić was a prominent member of the Serbian Democratic Party (SDS) in the Bratunac region of eastern Bosnia during the 1992-95 conflict.

He was sentenced in March 2004 after pleading guilty to persecution, a crime against humanity, the previous year.
