Serbs jailed for prison camp murder and torture

The UN war crimes court today jailed five Bosnian Serbs for up to 25 years for murder and torture in a prison camp.

Judge Almiro Rodrigues of Portugal told the men they had all known about or participated in rape, murder and persecution at the camp as part of a ‘‘widespread, systematic system of camps’’ intended to wipe out the non-Serb population in Prijedor.
