  5. INDIVIDUAL CRIMINAL RESPONSIBILITY

    Article 7(1) of the Statute of the Tribunal

  6. Slobodan MILOSEVIC is individually criminally responsible for the crimes referred to in Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the Statute of the Tribunal as described in this indictment, which he planned, instigated, ordered, committed, or in whose planning, preparation, or execution he otherwise aided and abetted. By using the word "committed" in this indictment, the Prosecutor does not intend to suggest that the accused physically committed any of the crimes charged personally. "Committed" in this indictment refers to participation in a joint criminal enterprise as a co-perpetrator.
  7. Slobodan MILOSEVIC participated in the joint criminal enterprise as set out below. The purpose of this joint criminal enterprise was the forcible and permanent removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from large areas of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (hereinafter referred to as "Bosnia and Herzegovina"), through the commission of crimes which are in violation of Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the Statute of the Tribunal.

  10. In order for the joint criminal enterprise to succeed in its objective, Slobodan MILOSEVIC worked in concert with or through other individuals in the joint criminal enterprise. Each participant or co-perpetrator within the joint criminal enterprise, sharing the intent to contribute to the enterprise, played his or her own role or roles that significantly contributed to achieving the objective of the enterprise. The roles of the participants or co-perpetrators include, but are not limited to, the following:

On 27 March 1992, KARADZIC became the President of the Bosnian Serb "National Security Council." On 12 May 1992, he was elected President of the three-member Presidency of the self-proclaimed Serbian Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (hereinafter referred to as "Republika Srpska") and remained in this position after the Presidency was expanded to five members on 2 June 1992.

From 27 March 1992, KRAJISNIK was a member of the Bosnian Serb National Security Council. He became a member of the five-member Presidency on 2 June 1992. When the Bosnian Serb Assembly elected Radovan KARADZIC President of Republika Srpska on 17 December 1992, KRAJISNIK ceased to be a member of the Presidency, but continued to be one of the most important political leaders in Republika Srpska and remained the President of its National Assembly until 19 October 1996.

In addition, he openly espoused and encouraged the creation of a "Greater Serbia" by violence and other unlawful means, and actively participated in war propaganda and spreading inter-ethnic hatred.
  24. From 1987 until late 2000, Slobodan MILOSEVIC was the dominant political figure in Serbia and the SFRY/FRY. He acquired control of all facets of the Serbian government, including the police and the state security services. In addition, he gained control over the political leaderships of Kosovo, Vojvodina, and Montenegro.
  25. In his capacity as the President of Serbia and through his leading position in the SPS party, Slobodan MILOSEVIC exercised effective control or substantial influence over the above listed participants in the joint criminal enterprise and either alone or acting in concert with them and additional known and unknown persons effectively controlled or substantially influenced the actions of the Federal Presidency of the SFRY and later the FRY, the Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs ("MUP"), the JNA, the Yugoslav Army ("VJ") and the VRS, as well as Serb paramilitary groups.
  26. Slobodan MILOSEVIC, acting alone and in concert with other members of the joint criminal enterprise participated in the joint criminal enterprise in the following ways:
    1. He exerted effective control over elements of the JNA and VJ which participated in the planning, preparation, facilitation and execution of the forcible removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from large areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
    2. He provided financial, logistical and political support to the VRS. These forces subsequently participated in the execution of the joint criminal enterprise through the commission of crimes which are in violation of Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the Statute of the Tribunal.
    3. He exercised substantial influence over, and assisted, the political leadership of Republika Srpska in the planning, preparation, facilitation and execution of the take-over of municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the subsequent forcible removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from those municipalities.
    4. He participated in the planning and preparation of the take-over of municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the subsequent forcible removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from those municipalities. He provided the financial, material and logistical support necessary for such take-over.
    5. He participated in the formation, financing, supply, support and direction of special forces of the Republic of Serbia Ministry of Internal Affairs. These special forces participated in the execution of the joint criminal enterprise through the commission of crimes which are in violation of Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the Statute of the Tribunal.
    6. He participated in providing financial, logistical and political support and direction to Serbian irregular forces or paramilitaries. These forces participated in the execution of the joint criminal enterprise through the commission of crimes which are in violation of Articles 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the Statute of the Tribunal.
    7. He controlled, manipulated or otherwise utilised Serbian state-run media to spread exaggerated and false messages of ethnically based attacks by Bosnian Muslims and Croats against Serb people intended to create an atmosphere of fear and hatred among Serbs living in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina which contributed to the forcible removal of the majority of non-Serbs, principally Bosnian Muslims and Bosnian Croats, from large areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

  27. Slobodan MILOSEVIC knowingly and wilfully participated in the joint criminal enterprise, while being aware of the foreseeable consequences of this enterprise. On this basis, he bears individual criminal responsibility for these crimes under Article 7(1) of the Statute of the Tribunal, in addition to his responsibility under the same Article for having planned, instigated, ordered or otherwise aided and abetted in the planning, preparation and execution of these crimes.
  28. Article 7(3) of the Statute of the Tribunal

  29. Slobodan MILOSEVIC, while holding positions of superior authority, is also individually criminally responsible for the acts or omissions of his subordinates, pursuant to Article 7(3) of the Statute of the Tribunal. A superior is responsible for the criminal acts of his subordinates if he knew or had reason to know that his subordinates were about to commit such acts or had done so, and the superior failed to take the necessary and reasonable measures to prevent such acts or to punish the perpetrators.
  30. From at least March 1991 until 15 June 1992, Slobodan MILOSEVIC exercised effective control over the four members of the "Serbian Bloc" within the Presidency of the SFRY. These four individuals were Borisav JOVIC, the representative of the Republic of Serbia; Branko KOSTIC, the representative of the Republic of Montenegro; Jugoslav KOSTIC, the representative of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina; and Sejdo BAJRAMOVIC, the representative of the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija. Slobodan MILOSEVIC used Borisav JOVIC and Branko KOSTIC as his primary agents in the Presidency and through them he directed the actions of the "Serbian Bloc." From 1 October 1991, in the absence of the representatives of the Presidency from Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, the four members of the "Serbian Bloc" exercised the powers of the Presidency, including that of collective "Commander-in-Chief" of the JNA. This "Rump Presidency" acted without dissension to execute Slobodan MILOSEVIC’s policies. The Federal Presidency had effective control over the JNA as its "Commander-in-Chief" and other units under the supervision of the JNA. Generals Veljko KADIJEVIC and Blagoje ADZIC, who directed and supervised the JNA forces in Bosnia and Herzegovina, were in constant communication and consultation with the accused.
  31. On 27 April 1992, the Supreme Defence Council was formed. Throughout the time relevant to this indictment, Slobodan MILOSEVIC was a member of the Supreme Defence Council and exercised substantial influence and control over other members of the Council. The Supreme Defence Council and the President of the FRY had de jure control over the JNA and later the VJ. In addition to his de jure powers, at all times relevant to this indictment, Slobodan MILOSEVIC exercised de facto control over the JNA and the VJ through his control over the high ranking officers of these armies.
  32. Slobodan MILOSEVIC is therefore individually criminally responsible, under Article 7(3) of the Statute of the Tribunal, for the participation of the members of the JNA and the VJ and other units under the supervision of the JNA and the VJ in the crimes described in this indictment.
  33. From the time Slobodan MILOSEVIC came to power in Serbia, he exercised control over key officials in the Serbian MUP, among them Radmilo BOGDANOVIC and Zoran SOKOLOVIC, who were both, at different times, the Minister of Internal Affairs of Serbia. He also exercised control over Jovica STANISIC and Franko SIMATOVIC, both high-ranking officials in the DB. Through these officials, Slobodan MILOSEVIC exercised effective control over agents of the MUP, including the DB, who directed and supported the actions of the special forces and Serb paramilitary groups operating in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The accused Slobodan MILOSEVIC is therefore individually criminally responsible, under Article 7(3) of the Statute of the Tribunal, for the participation of the members of the Serbian MUP, including the DB, in the crimes described in this indictment.
  34. THE CHARGES

  6. In order to achieve this objective, Serb forces comprised of JNA, VJ, VRS and TO, paramilitary units acting in co-operation with local police staff, local Serb authorities and special forces of the Serbian Ministry of Internal Affairs under the effective control of Slobodan MILOSEVIC or other members of the joint criminal enterprise, subjugated villages and towns in Bosnia and Herzegovina and participated with members of the SDS in the disarming of the non-Serb population. The towns and villages, including areas in which the inhabitants complied and offered no resistance, were then attacked. These attacks were intended to compel the non-Serb population to flee. After taking control of the towns and villages, the Serb forces often rounded-up the remaining non-Serb civilian population and forcibly removed them from the area. On other occasions, the Serb forces in co-operation with the local Serb authorities imposed restrictive and discriminatory measures on the non-Serb population and engaged in a campaign of terror designed to drive them out of the territory.

  11. ADDITIONAL FACTS

  12. In November 1990, multi-party elections were held in Bosnia and Herzegovina. At the Republic level, the SDA ("Stranka Demokratske Akcije – Party of Democratic Action) the party of the Bosnian Muslims won 86 seats; the SDS, the party of the Bosnian Serbs, won 72 seats and the HDZ (Hrvatska demokratska zajednica - Croatian Democratic Community) won 44 seats in the Assembly.
  13. The central idea within the SDS political platform, as articulated by its leaders, including Radovan KARADZIC, Momcilo KRAJISNIK and Biljana PLAVSIC, was the unification of all Serbs within one state. The SDS regarded the separation of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the SFRY as a threat to the interests of the Serbs.
  14. On 5 February 1991 the Assembly of the Republic of Serbia passed a "Law on Ministries" submitted by Slobodan MILOSEVIC. This law established twenty "Ministries" of the Serbian government, including the Ministry for Links with Serbs outside Serbia. This Ministry assisted the SDS to establish the Serb Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  15. The results of the November 1990 elections meant that, as time went on, the SDS would be unable through peaceful means to keep the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina in what was becoming a Serb-dominated Yugoslavia. As a result, Serb people within certain areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with Serb majorities, began to organise themselves into formal regional structures that they referred to as "Associations of Municipalities." In April 1991 the Association of Municipalities of Bosnian Krajina, centred in Banja Luka, was formed.
  16. In March 1991, the collective Presidency of the SFRY reached a deadlock on several issues including the issue of instituting a state of emergency in Yugoslavia. The representatives on the Presidency from the Republic of Serbia, the Republic of Montenegro, the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, and the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija all resigned from their posts. In a televised address on 16 March 1991, Slobodan MILOSEVIC, in his capacity as President of the Republic of Serbia, declared that Yugoslavia was finished and that Serbia would no longer be bound by decisions of the Federal Presidency.
  17. On 25 March 1991, Slobodan MILOSEVIC and Franjo TUDMAN met in Karadjordjevo and discussed the partition of Bosnia and Herzegovina between Serbia and Croatia.
  18. On 25 June 1991, Slovenia and Croatia declared their independence. On 26 June, the JNA intervened in Slovenia. In the summer of 1991, fighting broke out in Croatia.
  19. In August 1991 Radovan KARADZIC instituted a system of secret communication between the local boards of the SDS and the Main Staff and with the Republic of Serbia. This secret communication protocol was declared mandatory for the transmission of reports and orders.
  20. From autumn 1991, the JNA began to withdraw its forces out of Croatia. Forces under the control of the JNA began to re-deploy in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Many of these troops were deployed to areas in which there was no garrison or other JNA facility.
  21. As the war continued in Croatia it appeared increasingly likely that Bosnia and Herzegovina would also declare its independence from the SFRY. The SDS, realising it could not prevent the secession of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the SFRY, began the creation of a separate Serbian entity within Bosnia and Herzegovina. During the period from September to November 1991, several Serbian Autonomous Regions (SAO) were formed, some of them on the basis of the Associations of Municipalities referred to above.
  22. On 12 September 1991, the Serbian Autonomous Region of Herzegovina was proclaimed. On 16 September 1991, the Autonomous Region of Krajina was proclaimed by the Assembly of the Association of Municipalities of Bosnian Krajina. By 21 November 1991, the Serbian Autonomous Regions and Autonomous Regions consisted of the Autonomous Region of Krajina, the SAO Herzegovina, the SAO Romanija-Birac, the SAO Semberija, and SAO Northern Bosnia.
  23. On 3 October 1991, the four members of the SFRY Presidency from Serbia and Montenegro (Borisav JOVIC, Jugoslav KOSTIC, Sejdo BAJRAMOVIC and Branko KOSTIC) assumed the function of the SFRY Presidency, circumventing the roles and responsibilities of the Presidency members from Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Macedonia.
  24. On 15 October 1991, at the meeting of the SDS Party Council the decision was reached to form a separate assembly, entitled the "Assembly of the Serbian People of Bosnia and Herzegovina" to secure Serb interests.
  25. On or around 22 October 1991, Slobodan MILOSEVIC, together with other members of the joint criminal enterprise, continued to advocate for a unitary Serb state governed from Belgrade, Serbia. On the same date the "Rump Presidency" called for the mobilisation of reservists in Serbia and "other regions that want to stay in Yugoslavia."
  26. On or about 26 October 1991, Radovan KARADZIC declared a full mobilisation of the TO and the formation of field units in the Serb Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  27. On 24 October 1991, the Assembly of the Serbian People in Bosnia and Herzegovina, dominated by the SDS, decided to conduct a "Plebiscite of the Serbian People in Bosnia and Herzegovina" in order to decide whether to stay in the common state of Yugoslavia with Serbia, Montenegro, the Serbian Autonomous Region of Krajina, SAO Western Slavonia and SAO Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Srem.
  28. On 9 and 10 November 1991, the Bosnian Serbs held the plebiscite on the issue of whether Bosnia and Herzegovina should stay in Yugoslavia or become an independent state. The results overwhelmingly showed that the Bosnian Serbs wanted to stay in Yugoslavia.
  29. On 21 November 1991, the Assembly of the Serbian People of Bosnia and Herzegovina, proclaimed as part of the territory of the federal Yugoslav state all those municipalities, local communities and populated places, in which over 50% of the people of Serbian nationality had voted, during the plebiscite, to remain in that state as well as those places where citizens of other nationalities had expressed themselves in favour of remaining in Yugoslavia.
  30. On 11 December 1991, the Assembly of the Serbian People delivered a detailed request to the JNA to protect with all available means as "integral parts of the State of Yugoslavia" the territories of Bosnia and Herzegovina in which the plebiscite of the Serbian people and other citizens on remaining in a joint Yugoslav state had been conducted.
  31. On 19 December 1991, the SDS issued instructions for the "Organisation and Activity of the Organs of the Serbian People in Bosnia and Herzegovina in Extraordinary Circumstances" which provided a plan for the SDS take-over of municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  32. On 9 January 1992, the Assembly of the Serbian People of Bosnia and Herzegovina adopted a declaration on the Proclamation of the Serbian Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The territory of that republic was declared to include "the territories of the Serbian Autonomous Regions and Districts and of other Serbian ethnic entities in Bosnia and Herzegovina, including the regions in which the Serbian people remained in the minority due to the genocide conducted against it in World War Two", and it was declared to be a part of the federal Yugoslav state. On 12 August 1992, the name of the Bosnian Serb Republic was changed to Republika Srpska.
  33. From 29 February to 2 March 1992, Bosnia and Herzegovina held a referendum on independence. At the urging of the SDS, the majority of Bosnian Serbs boycotted the vote. The referendum resulted in a pro-independence majority.
  34. On 18 March 1992, during the 11th session of the Assembly of the Serbian People, a conclusion was reached to "prepare for the next session proposals for the take-over of power in the Republic of Serbian People of Bosnia and Herzegovina."
  35. From March 1992 onwards, Serb regular and irregular forces seized control of territories within Bosnia and Herzegovina, including those specified in this indictment.
  36. On 6 April 1992, the United States and the European Community formally recognized the independence of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  37. On 27 April 1992, Serbia and Montenegro proclaimed a new Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and declared it the successor state of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.
  38. On 12 May 1992, at the 16th Assembly of the Serbian People in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Radovan KARADZIC announced the six strategic objectives of the Serbian People in Bosnia and Herzegovina. These objectives included the eradication of the Drina River as a border between the Serbian states. During the same session, General Ratko MLADIC told the Assembly that it would not be possible to separate Serbs from non-Serbs and have the non-Serbs simply leave the territory. He warned that attempting this process would amount to genocide.
  39. On 15 May 1992, the United Nations Security Council in its resolution number 752 demanded that all interference from outside Bosnia and Herzegovina by units of the JNA cease immediately and that those units either be withdrawn, be subjected to the authority of the Government of the Republic, or be disbanded and disarmed.
