SARAJEVO, August 10 (FENA) - The Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina today issued an international arrest warrant for Milomir Savčić, a former general who is now the head of the Veterans’ Association of the Republika Srpska (RS) entity, accused of genocide in Srebrenica.
He has been inaccessible to the Judicial Police of Bosnia and Herzegovina since yesterday, after the hearing at which he was remanded in custody.
The trial against Savčić in the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina has been going on since June 2020, and the indictment, which charges him with planning, commanding and supervising the activities of members of the regiment during the capture and murder of hundreds of Bosniak men at several locations in Nova Kasaba, was filed in January this year.
The Court of BiH informed the public that they had received an official note from the BiH Judicial Police stating that the accused Milomir Savčić was not found at his home address and that he had not been taken to the detention unit by order of the Court.
After yesterday's hearing, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina ordered Savčić into custody for violating the previously pronounced measures banning him from appearing in the media on the issue of his case, i.e. the indictment for genocide in Srebrenica.
