Former Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic, who is also known for many as the Balkan butcher on June 28, 2001, has been extradited to The Hague after the 27 May 1999 war crimes indictment has been made public in Kosovo. Milosevic is later also accused of crimes in Croatia and genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
He was extradited at the Serbian government's order.
Milosevic had been arrested in Belgrade on one April 2001, after being responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people.
The trial against Milosevic in The Hague began on 12 February 2002. Extracting evidence of crimes in Kosovo and Croatia and genocide in Bosnia and Herzegovina has lasted until 25 February 2004. His defence began in late August of this year.
The trial against Milosevic has been interrupted dozens of times because of cardiac problems and high blood pressure.
On February 22nd, Milosviqi has declared he is unable to continue questioning witnesses, while on February 24th his request for recovery in Russia is rejected.
On March 11, 9:30, he was found dead in his cell.
