He maintained his innocence to the end, now vindicated.

Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic Found Not Guilty of War Crimes

BELGRADE – The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague has determined that the late Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic was not responsible for war crimes committed during the 1992-95 Bosnian war.

In a stunning ruling, the trial chamber that convicted former Bosnian-Serb president Radovan Karadzic of war crimes and sentenced him to 40 years in prison, unanimously concluded that Slobodan Milosevic was not part of a “joint criminal enterprise” to victimize Muslims and Croats during the Bosnian war.

Also found is that the Serbian nationalist leader Vojislav Seselj was also acquitted on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the 1990s post-Yugoslav wars, in a surprise verdict.

The verdict — by a majority two judges out of a three-judge panel — is a blow for prosecutors and for the thousands of Muslims involved in the conflict.
