The prosecution of war crimes cases in Bosnia and Herzegovina is 'floundering', said the prosecutor for the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia earlier this week.
Speaking to the UN Security Council, Serge Brammertz slammed Bosnia's state court, stating that little progress had been made towards 9 of 13 cases which had been transferred to it.
He went on to add that the Bosnian state court's release of 12 suspects, some who are accused of genocide, "poses a threat to the proper conclusion of the cases and undermines public confidence in the administration of justice".
