UK agrees ex-Bosnian Serb leader, convicted of war crimes, should be transferred to British prison
Britain has agreed that the former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadžić, convicted of war crimes during the Balkan conflict of the 1990s, should be transferred to a British prison to serve the rest of his sentence.
“Radovan Karadžić is one of the few people to have been found guilty of genocide. He was responsible for the massacre of men, women and children at the Srebrenica genocide and helped prosecute the siege of Sarajevo with its remorseless attacks on civilians,” said the UK foreign secretary, Dominic Raab.
