The former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic has failed in his attempt to be cleared of all charges at The Hague war crimes tribunal.
Karadzic denies 11 counts of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.
He is accused of being responsible for the Srebrenica massacre in 1995, which left over 7,000 Bosniak men and boys dead.
The judges rejected his acquittal bid, saying that the "genocidal intent" of the accused "may be inferred" from all the evidence.
They found Mr Karadzic’s claim of being unaware of the ground situation as not credible, as evidence shows that there were meetings and phone calls to co-ordinate and exchange plans.
He has however been cleared of one of the two charges of genocide.
The judges found that there was insufficient evidence to prove beyond doubt that genocide was committed in municipalities other than Srebrenica.
The trial will now go on, with the defence due to present their evidence in October.
