The Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina issued a first-instance verdict in which Milomir Đuričić was sentenced to five and Vukadin Spasojević to 11 years in prison for the crimes committed in 1992 and 1993 in the “Uzamnica” camp in Višegrad.
They were convicted of crimes against humanity and found guilty of participating in a widespread and systematic attack against the non-Serb population in Visegrad.
Đuričić was convicted in his capacity as the warden of “Uzamnica” from August 1992 to April 1993, and Spasojević as the guard distributor in that camp from May 1992 to September 1993.
Spasojević did not appear at the sentencing. According to the decision of the Judicial Council, both were ordered into custody.
The trial of Đuričić and Spasojević began in March 2022.
An appeal to the Appellate Council of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina is allowed.
