SARAJEVO: A Bosnian court on Monday jailed a Bosnian Serb for 15 years for the killing of five Muslims during the Balkan nation´s 1990s war.
Dusko Zoric, a 55-year-old extradited by Germany last year, was found guilty by Bosnia´s state court of crimes against humanity during the 1992-95 conflict, which left about 100,000 people dead.
At least 69 Bosnian Muslims, half of them women and children, were killed by Bosnian Serb forces in the village of Zecovi, near Prijedor, a Bosnian Serb-majority city, in July 1992. Judge Saban Maksumic said the five men killed by Zoric had just been arrested in their homes in the village.
