Two former senior Serbian security officers have had their convictions for war crimes upheld and widened by a tribunal in The Hague, in the last major war crimes trial from the conflicts in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia.
UN judges significantly expanded the convictions of two allies of the late Serbian president Slobodan Milošević, holding them responsible for involvement in crimes – across Bosnia and Herzegovina and in one town in Croatia – as members of a joint plan to ethnically cleanse non-Serbs from the areas during the 1990s wars in the Balkans.
