Seshel invited to testify at The Hague

Seshel confirmed to Radio Free Europe that the hearing is scheduled to be held on 1 July.

He also said that he would likely respond to this invitation.

The invitation for questioning confirmed it via a Twitter post and former senior Soheshel party official Nemanja Sharovic. He said that he does not want to accept the invitation to this mechanism because, he said, it was not written in Cyrillic.

Seshel told Radio Free Europe that similar invitation was extended to Lilana Mihajlovqi, Ognjen Mihajlovik, Mirolub Ignjatovich, Marina Ristic and Marina Ragus. All of these are members or former members of the Serbian Radical Party.

The invitation for evidence is to deal with the alleged <x0-scales of The Hague Tribunal rules in terms of protecting the identity of protected witnesses and confidential documents”, Seshel said during a telephone conversation with Radio Free Europe.

I've published everything in my books, over 50 books. I will publish all of The Hague Tribunal materials from my case, because my case is over and they can't keep secrets for 100 years this”, Seshel said.

He added that he has not risked the lives of witnesses, but said he will continue to extract these materials.

From the International Mechanism for Criminal Courts and Serbia's War Crimes Prosecutor's Office yet to comment.

Vojslav Seshel in 2018 was sentenced to 10 years in prison by The Hague Tribunal for inciting persecution, deportation, shift, forced displacement of Croats to the village of Hertkovci in 1992.

On May 6, 1992, Seshel delivered a speech in this country, which according to the International Mechanism for Criminal Courts said has contributed to persecution, deportation and non-human acts.

Seshel was released in Serbia because he suffered detention during his detention from 2003 to 2014.

In contrast, the International Mechanism for Criminal Courts for years has urged Serbia to extradite members of SESHel's party, Petar Jojich and Vjerica Radeta, who are accused of intimidation, threat and bribery to witnesses in the case of Seheshel.

Serbia still refuses to extradite them, arguing that under a Belgrade Supreme Court ruling, conditions for extradition have not been met. This court, in 2016, said there are no legal grounds for the arrest and extradition of members of the Serbian Radical Party, because the local law for co-operation with The Hague tribunal envisions that only persons charged with war crimes could be extradited, not those accused of undermining the tribunal.
