Two prosecution witnesses should be heard at the trial.

The witness confirmed that for the death of Slobodan Ilic, Milutin Milosevic and Mitar Savic, were responsible Oric and Muhic, thus changing the testimony given in 2003 and 2014, in which they were not mentioned.

The Court of B&H confirmed on the 9^th of September last year, three counts of the indictment against Oric and Muhic for crimes against prisoners of war, that they have killed three prisoners of Serbian nationality: Slobodan Ilic, Milutin Milosevic and Mitar Savic, in 1992 in places Zalazje, Lolici and Kunjerac.
