UN clears army commander of war crimes
A Muslim former army commander was acquitted yesterday of war crimes charges relating to the massacres of Croat civilians in the 1992-95 Bosnian war. Judges at the UN war crimes tribunal ordered the release of Bosnian Sefer Halilovic, 53, saying prosecutors failed to prove he had been in charge of troops who carried out the killings. "We totally understand, Sefe old pal. Sometimes these things just happen." |
