Four trials continue at Hague

The first defense witness will continue his evidence at the trial of Dragomir Milošević, former commander of the Bosnian Serb Army (VRS) Sarajevo-Romanija Corps charged with the artillery and sniper campaign between August 1994 and the end of the war in Bosnia.

Stevan Veljović was the operations officers in the Corps staff at the relevant time. Judge Robinson’s trial chamber has allowed Milosevic’s defense to call 63 witnesses. Their examination should take a total of 145 hours – 35 court days.

The Chamber wants the defense to rest its case by 24 August. After that, the parties will present their closing arguments, and the judgment is expected to be rendered by the end of October or early November.

The trial of Vojislav Šešelj, leader of the Serbian Radicals, should begin before the same trial chamber in November. Šešelj is charged with crimes against humanity in Croatia, Bosnia and Vojvodina.

On Tuesday, the prosecution will continue its case at the trial of the seven Bosnian Serb military and police officers charged with the crimes in Srebrenica and Žepa in July 1995, at the trial of the six former Bosnian Croat political and military leaders charged with the crimes in the so-called Herceg Bosna in 1993 and 1994, and the trial of the three former KLA commanders charged with the crimes against Serbian, Albanian and Roma civilians in 1998.

The trial of Ljube Boskoski and Johan Tarculovski, for crimes against Albanian civilians in the village of Ljuboten near Skoplje in August 2001, has been adjourned for a week. The trial of the six former political, military and political officials from Serbia charged with the crimes against Kosovo Albanians has also been adjourned until the start of the defense case, scheduled for 6 August.

Snažno nevreme stiže u Srbiju

U većem delu Srbije će danas pre podne biti pretežno sunčano, toplo, suvo i vetrovito, uz olujnu košavu u Beogradu, na jugu Banata, u Pomoravlju i donjem Podunavlju, a već u poslepodnevnim satima biće kratkotrajne kiše ili pljuskova.
