United Nations prosecutors are seeking the return of a Serbian war crimes suspect who was temporarily released from The Hague, in order to receive treatment for cancer.

Vojislav Seselj, founder and president of the Serbian Radical Party, was released on “humanitarian grounds” last month, in order to return to Serbia and receive treatment for cancer.

On his return, he was greeted by some 5,000 supporters and made a speech vowing to overthrow “Serbian traitors” who had “become servants of the West.”

Prosecutors at the UN war crimes tribunal in the Hague filed a motion stating,

"He has clearly demonstrated that his health condition is no barrier to making unacceptable public statements that are inflammatory and insulting to victim communities."

Lebanese security officials claim to have detained the wife and child of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, at a border crossing into Lebanon.

Lebanese newspaper al-Safir broke the story of the arrest, which occurred more than a week ago, according to officials.

The pair were allegedly attempting to cross from Syria into Lebanon using forged papers. Al-Safir claims that foreign intelligence services alongside Lebanese security officials detained the two.

An appeal by Thomas Lubanga, the first person convicted by the International Criminal Court, has been rejected.

The Congolese militia's leader attempted to overturn his conviction and 14 year sentence for recruiting child soldiers under the age of 15 and sending them into battle.

A five-judge panel at The Hague rejected or dismissed the seven parts of Lubanga's appeal.

"The trial chamber's assessment of the facts was reasonable," said presiding judge Erkki Koroula.

Maoist rebels have killed thirteen policemen in the central Indian state of Chattisgarh, while they were conducting a raid on a rebel hideout.

The men with the Central Reserve Police Force were surrounded and attacked by an unknown number of rebels in the state’s Sukma district, leaving another 12 policemen injured.

Nazi-hunter Efraim Zuroff said, who heads the centre, said though he could not prove forensically SS captain Alois Brunner was dead, "we are certain that is the case."

Brunner, who would now be 102 years old, is accused of deporting more than 128,000 Jews from Austria, Greece, France and Slovkia to concentration camps during World War II. In 2003, he was named as "the world's highest-ranking Nazi fugitive believed still alive".

"[He] played a key role in the implementation of Hitler's 'Final Solution' to murder Jews," said Zuroff, calling Brunner "a monster."
