FOUR paramilitaries seen in a video gunning down Bosnian Muslims near Srebrenica in 1995 were convicted of war crimes against civilians yesterday by Serbia’s War Crimes Court.

A suspect in a trial of five Serb militiamen charged with the videotaped execution of six Bosnian Muslim civilians acknowledged that he was the first to shoot them, but said he was carrying out orders, according to testimony read in court today.
