Serb Ex-Soldiers Detained Over War Crimes

Nearly twenty years after the Balkans war, several Serb ex-soldiers and policemen were detained on Monday, September 1, over charges of committing war crimes against Bosniaks and Croats during the 1992-1995 war.

They are charged with the murder of at least 40 Croats and Bosniaks, "persecution, enforced displacement and illegal detention of several hundred people, as well as the robbery and destruction of property of Croat and Bosniak victims in the area", read a statement from the prosecutor's office cited by Reuters.

Bosnian police arrested 13 former Bosnian Serb soldiers and policemen among them several top wartime police officers and members of a notorious military group known as "Mice".

The group is suspected of committing war crimes in the northern towns of Teslic and Doboj, according to the statement.

Investigating the case since 1992-1995 war along with other cases, the UN war crimes tribunal has transferred the case to the Bosnian prosecutors.

The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) has also handed several cases of Balkans 1990s war crimes to suspects to the Bosnian war crimes court.

Last month, a Dutch court has found Netherlands liable for the killing of more than 300 Bosnian Muslims out of 8,000 who were killed 1995, ordering the nation to pay compensations for the families of the Muslim victims.

Though knowing the war crimes of Serbs and that Muslims would be killed, Dutch peacekeepers (Dutchbat) deported the 300 Bosniaks outside the base, leaving them in the woods where they were massacred later.

Relatives of the slain Bosniaks slammed the ruling and the compensations saying that it has “no sense of justice”.

Bosnia fell into civil war in 1992 that left 200,000 people dead and displaced millions as Serb forces launched ethnic cleansing campaign against Bosnian Muslims.

During the 43-month war, which claimed some 200,000 lives, nearly two million people fled their homes, half a million of them are still listed as refugees.
