Not guilty plea at war crimes trial

TWO Bosnian Serbs who surrendered to the UN tribunal for the former Yugoslavia last month pleaded not guilty yesterday to war crimes charges.

Former Bosnian Serb military policeman Gojko Jankovic and General Radivoje Miletic contested charges for alleged involvement in crimes during the 1992-1995 Bosnian war.

Jankovic, 50, was accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity during the Bosnian Serb assault on the town of Foca in 1992.
