«...even war criminals have the right of the speedy trial and the right to defend themselves in the court of law. »
I would add, especially war criminals. What a loss of time. The ICTY should have incriminated Milosevic with one accusation (extermination and mass murders in Kosovo), present a solid proof and condemn him. The same should be done with Seselj. No loss of time with criminals who have tarnished not only the image of their nation but also the soul of mankind.
What you call 'Milosevic exit' should be rather called 'Milosevic choice'. He did not want to live and he let himself died. I would also remind you that capital punishment, 'Saddam exit' should be provided to war criminals, not euthanasia!
The issue at hand is not wheter Seselj is war criminal or not. It is irrelevant -even war criminals have the right of the speedy trial and the right to defend themselves in the court of law.
As can be seen from the words of Chief persecutor Ms. Del Ponte, ICTY refuses to trial Seselj because he wants to represent himself.
He went on days hunger stirke because the Tribunal assigned a lawyer to him against his wish. Having in mind who that lawyer was, Seselj's refusal was justified.
It is interesting how those who criticize U.S. for Guantanamo are silent about having Guantanamo on European soil.
The vise words of Valtazar Bogisic "humpback will not be cured by time" apply in this case. ICTY was created in violation of UN Charter (UNSC has no judicary powers and can not create judicary auxilliary bodies) so it is not at all surprising that ICTY violates established human rights norms, including UN's own Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The ICTY has a choice - to let Seselj defend himself and risk frivolous accusations being shredded to pieces, or to provide "Milosevic exit" to
Seselj. Having in mind that euthanasia is legal in The Netherlands, it will not be difficult.
