Eight arrested over Serbian execution footage

Serbian police have arrested at least eight men they say are shown in a video killing a group of Bosnian Muslim prisoners from Srebrenica, a top Belgrade official said today.

Rasim Ljajic, head of the Serbia-Montenegro government body in charge of co-operation with the UN war crimes tribunal, told reporters that the police action followed the screening of the footage yesterday at the UN court in The Hague, Netherlands.
