Radomir Vuković ordered into custody
(08.08.2008. 15:55)

On 8 August 2008, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) issued a Decision ordering into one-month custody Radomir Vuković, who is suspected of the criminal offence of Genocide. Pursuant to the Decision, the custody may last until 7 September 2008.

Having considered the submitted evidence, the Court concluded that there was grounded suspicion that the Suspect Vuković had committed the foregoing criminal offence. Further, the Court ordered custody having found that there was sufficient evidence indicating the risk of flight on the part of the Suspect, and that the Suspect, if released, might interfere with the criminal proceedings by influencing the witnesses. Also, the Court ordered the Suspect Vuković into custody given that the crime in question carries a 10-year imprisonment penalty or a harsher sentence, so due to the manner of perpetration or the consequences of the crime, bearing in mind that releasing would result in a genuine threat to public order.
