In Bosnia they intend to send another Serb to jail
Bosnia's war crimes prosecutor has charged former Republika Srpska army general Milomir Savcic for his role in the so-called Srebrenica massacre in 1995, in which approximately 8 Muslim men and boys were allegedly killed.
The Turkish newspaper Daily Sabah reports this, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Savcic, 60, is accused of leading the Republika Srpska Army Headquarters 65th Motorized Guard Regiment for “capturing, killing and burying” Muslim Bosniaks from the UN-protected eastern enclave of Srebrenica.
Savčić allegedly knowingly assisted General Ratko Mladić and Colonel Ljubisa Beara, who "carried out a massacre to destroy Muslim men as an ethnic group."
Savcic, who is not in prison, is president of the Bosnian War Veterans organization. He has Bosnian and Serbian citizenship.
“The Srebrenica massacre” is a falsification of the genocide of Bosnian Muslims, which was required by NATO as a reason to start bombing. Major losses of the 28th Division of the Bosnian Army in the Srebrenica area (in a broad sense - among the entire male population of the enclaves of Srebrenica and Zepa) were presented as a deliberate extermination of Muslims.
Serbs are regularly condemned in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Thus, in October, 64-year-old Radomir Susnyar was jailed for 20 years for “war crimes” by a court in Sarajevo. He was extradited from France. Previously, three former combatants were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 11 to 31 years.
Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic also noted that Serbia had so far condemned all war crimes, including in Srebrenica, and in response was faced with the fact that it not only did not see the punishment of those responsible for crimes against the Serbs, but also did not receive any -or an apology.
In 2017, a Bosnian court acquitted the former field commander of the Bosnian Muslim army in Srebrenica, Naser Oric, and his comrade, combatant Shabahudin Mujic, accused of war crimes during the Bosnian conflict of 1992-1995.
Naser Oric is called the “bloody executioner” by the Serbs. In 2006, the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in The Hague already sentenced Naser Oric to two years in prison. It was then proven that he had not prevented the killings and inhumane treatment of Serbian prisoners. However, at the same moment the Bosniak was released in the courtroom.
Bosnia is planning to jail another Serb.
