Milosevic frustrated by Kosovo peasant

Serb forces pillaged Kosovar Albanian villages in 1999, leaving the bodies of children and even a crippled old woman in the smouldering ruins, a retired farmer testified at Slobodan Milosevic’s war crimes trial today.

The former Yugoslav president’s trial in The Hague moved into a third week as prosecutors called more witnesses to testify about atrocities in the province that left thousands dead and more than 800,000 deported from their homes.
