Serbian military denies sheltering Ratko Mladic

Serbia-Montenegro’s military today denied it was sheltering war crimes fugitive General Ratko Mladic, one of the most-wanted suspects sought by the UN war crimes tribunal.

The government of Republika Srpska, the Serb-controlled half of Bosnia, said in a report published yesterday that the indicted wartime Bosnian Serb army commander was sheltered by “individuals” in the Serbia-Montenegro and the Bosnian Serb military.
