According to Savcic’s lawyer, Miodrag Stojanovic, the court decision to detain his client was made at the request of the BiH Prosecutor’s Office. Stojanovic stressed that he was informed of the decision by telephone and that he would appeal the decision within the legal deadline of three days.

During today's hearing, BiH Prosecutor Ibro Bulić stated that General Savčić repeatedly violated "prohibitory measures" when he spoke critically to Alternative Television on July 11 regarding the proclamation of a Day of Mourning for the "Victims of Srebrenica" and on July 23 regarding the amendments to the BiH Criminal Code proposed by the High Representative. According to Bulić, Savčić also made similar comments regarding the Independent International Commission on Srebrenica's report, which concluded that there was no genocide in Srebrenica, to the RTRS television channel on July 23, and in a statement to the K3 television channel on July 27.

The inscription on the leaflet: “General Savcic is innocent. Republika Srpska is not a genocidal entity.”

“The realization that a measure of detention has been determined for me only causes surprise, confusion and distrust of the system in which we find ourselves, in its current state, anti-legal and illegal,” Milomir Savcic himself commented on the court decision.

“BORS believes that the trial of General Savčić because, as has already been said, of his public speeches and comments regarding the events of the Patriotic War is a clear example of the fact that the BiH Court adheres to double standards,” it was said on the occasion in the appeal Veterans' Organization of the Republika Srpska (BORS - Boracke Organization Republika Srpska). “BORS also asks whether the president of one of the most important organizations in the Republika Srpska can be president without saying or announcing anything, not as his personal opinion, but the opinion of 170 thousand people belonging to this organization?”

The Union of Concentration Camp Prisoners of the Republika Srpska made a similar appeal in support of Savcic:

“We, Serbian prisoners who suffered horrific torture in concentration camps throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina, believe that this is a wrong decision and another unprecedented pressure on the Serbs from the BiH Prosecutor’s Office. If this is the message from the BiH Court that Serbs should not talk about their suffering, then such a state should not exist,” the Union statement said.
