Six Milosevic aides go on trial for Kosovo war crimes
The death of Slobodan Milosevic abruptly and inconclusively ended his trial for war crimes in Kosovo, but he remained a predominant figure in the trial of six Serb politicians and generals that opened in The Netherlands today.
The six, headed by former Serbian President Milan Milutinovic, 63, are charged with orchestrating the deportation of 800,000 ethnic Albanians in a 1998-99 crackdown that prompted a Nato bombing campaign to end the Serb campaign.
