Former Serbian President Milan Milutinovic Cleared of War Crimes Charges by UN Tribunal

Former Serbian President Milan Milutinovic has been cleared of war crimes and crimes against humanity charges by a UN war crimes tribunal while five other former Serbian officials have been found guilty.

 

Milutinovic, along with the other men, stood accused of war crimes tied to the country’s conflict with Kosovo in the 1990s. According to prosecutors the men participated “in an alleged campaign of terror and violence directed against Kosovo Albanians and other non-Serbs in Kosovo during 1999.”

 

The trial, held under the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, began in July 2006 and involved more than 230 witnesses.

 

Those convicted at The Hague were handed sentences ranging from 15 to 22 years.
