On January 30 the Appellate Chamber of the Hague Tribunal is due to pronounce a verdict against Vujadin Popovic and four other indictees, who were sentenced, under a first instance verdict, for genocide and other crimes in Srebrenica in July 1995.
Testifying at Radovan Karadzic’s trial before The Hague Tribunal, witness Bosko Mandic says that “none of the authorities organised or abetted the removal of non-Serbs from Prijedor”.
At the trial of Radovan Karadzic prosecutors try to prove that Defence witness Vujadin Popovic was not “an innocent passer-by” at several locations, where thousands of Srebrenica Muslims were shot in July 1995, but he was “a committed participant” and one of the key crime perpetrators.
Testifying at the trial of Radovan Karadzic before The Hague Tribunal, Tomislav Kovac says that the indictee did not know anything about a mass murder of Muslim captives from Srebrenica.
Testifying in defence of Radovan Karadzic, former member of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, Franc Kos says that, following the shooting of hundreds of Srebrenica Muslims on Branjevo farm, Lieutenant Colonel Ljubisa Beara praised the crime perpetrators in a café “for doing an excellent job” and promised that “the state would be grateful to them.”
Dutch Officer Vincent Egbers says, testifying at Ratko Mladic’s trial, that he saw Muslim men, whom the Republika Srpska Army, VRS, had separated from their families, in a white house in Potocari two days after the fall of Srebrenica in July 1995.
Prosecution witness Dragomir Keserovic says at the trial of Ratko Mladic at The Hague that, in 1995 he did not get any pieces of information about the execution of Muslim captives from Srebrenica, although he was in Bratunac and its surroundings in mid-July in his capacity as Security Officer with the Main Headquarters of the Republika Srpska Army, VRS.
