The suspect Pinčić, as alleged in the Prosecutor’s motion, repeatedly took one female person from the room where other civilians were detained, and forced her to sexual intercourse, holding his rifle by the bed and threatening her that he would bring 15 soldiers and that she would see what would then happen to all of them.

On 26 June 2008 the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) issued a Decision dismissing Prosecutor’s motion for the extension of custody, terminating custody for the Accused Pinčić and imposing prohibitive measures which include:
