Gasal et al: Witness apprehension warrant

Bugojno

08 October 2008 The Prosecution asks the Court to issue a witness apprehension warrant.

The Trial Chamber will issue a warrant, ordering the apprehension of witness Kazimir Kajic, who failed to respond to the invitation and appear in the courtroom.

Prosecution witness Kajic was invited on several occasions but he never appeared before the Court. He was supposed to testify at the trial of Nisvet Gasal, Musajb Kukavica, Enes Handzic and Senad Dautovic.

The four men are charged with crimes committed against Croatian civilians in Bugojno in the course of 1993 and 1994.

The Prosecution considers Gasal and Kukavica responsible for the functioning of the detention camp at the "Iskra" stadium. Enes Handzic, former assistant commander for security with the 307^th Brigade of the Bosnian Army, ABiH, and Senad Dautovic, former member of the Joint ABiH Staffs in Bugojno, are charged with having participated in capturing of civilians and its planning.

If the court police apprehends witness Kazic, he is due to be examined at the hearing, scheduled for November 5, when two other witnesses will also be examined.
