Serb Commander's war crimes convictions upheld by the ICC

The sentences of two ex-paramilitary Bosnian Serb commanders have been upheld by the International Criminal Court.

The two former members of the 'White Eagles' Serb paramilitary group, were contesting their guilty verdicts, on the back of Serbian protests against the tribunal’s unfair targeting of Serbs.

Dispelling Serbia’s allegations of unfair treatment, the war crimes tribunal upheld the life sentence handed to one of the ex-paramilitary members and reduced the second member’s life sentence by 3 years.
