TWO SERBIAN WAR CRIMINALS ARRESTED IN BOSNIA

SARAJEVO, Bosnia (November 18,2008) - Bosnian police today arrested two Serbian war criminals suspected of torturing and murdering Bosnian civilians during the 1992-1995 Serbian aggression against Bosnia,the Bosnian State Court said.

Serbian war criminals Soniboj Skiljevic and Radoje Lalovic are suspected of "unlawful detention, torture, inhumane treatment, causing serious bodily harm, murder and forced labor" at the Kula concentration camp, prosecutors said.

Before the 1992-1995 Serbian aggression against Bosnia, the Kula prison was for petty criminals, but in April 1992, the genocidal Serbian fascist aggressor turned it into a detention facility for thousands of Bosnian civilians.

The crimes were committed from May 1992 to December 1995, the prosecutors of the Bosnian State Court of Bosnia said in a statement.

The two Serbian war criminals were arrested in Sarajevo and in the northeastern Bosnian town of Bijeljina, respectively.

Before Bosnia's 1992-1995 war, the Kula prison was for petty criminals, but when the fighting broke out in April 1992, Serb forces turned it into a detention facility for thousands of Croats and Muslims.

Some 10,000 Bosnian civilians passed through the Kula concentration camp during the 1992-1995 Serbian aggression against Bosnia, according to the U.N. war crimes tribunal for ex-Yugoslavia.
