| Ratko Mladic War Crime List |
BELGRADE, Serbia – Ratko Mladic is an ethnic Serb military leader and accused war criminal.
On July 24, 1995, Mladic was indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and accused of genocide, crimes against humanity, and numerous war crimes (including crimes relating to the alleged sniping campaign against civilians in Sarajevo).
Mladic was vanished from the scene in July 1995 after further expansion of the war crimes list and after as long as 16 years of hunting the most wanted person of Europe, Ratko Mladic, was detained in the wee hours of Thursday (May 26, 2011) in a village located in northern Serbia. Mladic appeared in Belgrade’s Serbian war crimes court first time later on Thursday.
Immediately after his appearance in the court he claimed to be sick and questions rose over whether the 69-year-old Ratko Mladic was fit to stand trial.
The hearing was stopped when Mladic’s lawyer Milos Saljic pointed out that Mladic is unable to communicate. Talking to media he said, “The investigative judge tried to question Ratko Mladic but he failed because he (Mladic) is in a difficult psychological and physical condition.”
Ratko Mladic had to undergo medical assessments and doctors would report on Friday as to whether he is able to appear in court, Saljic further told media-men.
