The attached March 19, 2010, Chamber decision in the Karadzic case on defense access to DNA data illustrates perfectly the Hague Tribunal’s skewed concept of “equality of arms” between the parties. Out of about 6,600 alleged DNA matches, in this ruling the Chamber is contemplating the disclosure of at most 300, or about 5%. The Chamber disingenuously bases its decision on Rule 54 of the Tribunal’s Rules of Procedure and Evidence, overlooking the more apposite and binding language of Rule 66. In the end, nothing came even of the grudgingly conceded 300 samples. As defense forensic expert Dr. Oliver Stojković eventually testified in a different case he was finally allowed to see only five samples, and even those not in a condition fit for testing.
