Muslim generals arrested for Bosnian war crimes

A day after convicting a Bosnian Serb of genocide for killing thousands of Muslims, the UN tribunal today unveiled indictments against three Bosnian Muslims for war crimes against Croats.

Two Muslim generals and a colonel were charged with responsibility for the execution of civilians and war prisoners, for using hostages as human shields under fire, and for the wanton destruction of towns and villages in 1993.
