Excerpts from Books and Wikipedia
"Slobodan Milosevic, the former president of Serbia, under whose leadership Yugoslavia was torn apart by civil war, faced 66 charges at his trial in The Hague. These included work crimes and genocide relating to atrocities committed in Kosovo (1991), Croatia (1991-1992), and Bosnia (1992-1995), notably the Srebenica massacre. . . . He received adulation at home, but by 2000 the Serbs faced defeat and economic ruin. . . . Milosevic was handed over to the International Criminal Court for the former Yugoslavia, a body of questionable impartiality because it was established and financed by NATO, the alliance that had opposed him. . . . The prosecution case was at risk of collapsing for lack of evidence and unreliable witnesses. Milosevic, however, ended the trial by dying of heart failure in March 2006." [Furtado: 1001 Days]
