Serb cousins ‘burned Muslims alive’

A UN war crimes court have convicted two Bosnian Serb cousins for a 1992 killing spree that included locking scores of Muslims in two houses and burning them alive.

Yugoslav war crimes tribunal judge Patrick Robinson said burning at least 119 Muslims to death in the eastern Bosnian town of Visegrad “exemplified the worst acts of inhumanity that one person may inflict on others”.

He sentenced Milan Lukic to life in prison and Sredoje Lukic to 30 years.
