Hunt for war crimes fugitives 'urgent' after Milosevic death
Slobodan Milosevic’s death just before the end of his trial deprived victims of justice – and made the capture of war crimes fugitives Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic even more urgent, the chief UN prosecutor said today.
“It is a great pity for justice that the (Milosevic) trial will not be completed and no verdict will be rendered,” Carla Del Ponte said at a news conference a day after the former Yugoslav leader was found dead in his cell near The Hague.
