State Police have on Wednesday morning arrested wartime Bosnian commander Ramiz Drekovic on war crimes charges saying that he ordered the shelling of a Bosnian Serb majority town in 1995.

The former Fourth Corps commander of the Bosnian Army has allegedly ordered artillery units to shell the Bosnian Serb majority town in 1995, and with that breached the Geneva Convention on Protection of Civilians, the Prosecutor’s Office said.

Apart from allegedly causing the death of a 15-year-old, the shelling severely injured several persons and children, prosecutors said.

“We still have not been informed about all the details,” his lawyers, Kadrija Kolic and Mirsad Crnovrsanin, told N1.

Drekovic was arrested in his flat in Sarajevo on an order by the State Prosecutor, according to Kolic.
