FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, May 20 (FENA) - Goran Govedarica, a former reservist police officer from Gacko in southern Bosnia and Herzegovina, was charged with committing war crimes against Bosniak civilians in 1992.

The Bosnian state prosecution on Monday charged Goran Govedarica, a former reservist policeman at the Public Security Station in Gacko, with contravening Geneva Conventions provisions on protecting civilians in a time of war.

“He has been charged with physically mistreating and abusing a Bosniak civilian and killing another Bosniak civilian by shooting him with firearms in the Gacko area in June 1992,” the indictment said.

The indictment has been forwarded to the state court for confirmation, BIRN reports.
