ICTY Prosecution forensic teams which were conducting exhumations of Srebrenica-related mass graves between 1996 and 2001 produced 3,568 “cases.” In their terminology, a case is a file referring to a distinct collection of body parts, usually accompanied with an autopsy report. Even though the number of “cases” ultimately created falls far short of the alleged 8,000…
How did the 28th Division fare in July of 1995?
In July of 1995, when Serbian forces began their offensive in Eastern Bosnia, the 28th Division of the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina was illegally stationed in the UN protected enclave of Srebrenica.

ICTY summary of Srebrenica events
The ICTY summary of Srebrenica events as allegedly established in the various Srebrenica trials at the Hague is not a professionally written executive synopsis of the evidence, but a PR puff piece. The facts presented on this website refute every one of its major assertions, or at least cast sufficient reasonable doubt to invalidate it…
Dr. Ljubiša Simić: General presentation and interpretation of Srebrenica forensic data (Pattern of injury breakdown)
The subject of this presentation is the results of the forensic analyses performed by expert teams of The Hague Tribunal (“ICTY”) between 1995 and 2002 at several locations in the region of Eastern Bosnia during the exhumation and examination of human remains from thirteen locations that were presumed to contain the bodies of Srebrenica victims.…
What are the Tribunal and ICMP trying to hide?
The comment below has provoked lively responses. One of them is by Canadian barrister Christopher Black. He points out some fundamental flaws in the strategy followed by the Karadžić defence. By acquiescing to the rules for the admission of evidence being turned on their head, Mr. Black seems to be suggesting that Dr. Karadžić is,…

New book on ICTY and conflict in the former Yugoslavia: “Joint Criminal Enterprise,” by Andy Wilcoxcson
A casual reader of this book would never suspect that its author is not a lawyer or historian but a person with a background in the technical sciences. With remarkable clarity and ample documentation, Andy Wilcoxson calls into question the major postulates of the “received wisdom” about conflicts in Yugoslavia in the 1990s and compellingly…
Srebrenica demilitarization agreement of April 18, 1993
This is the first Srebrenica demilitarization agreement signed in April 1993 (the second was concluded a fortnight later and also included the neighboring enclave of Žepa) providing for the handover of weapons and cessation of use of Srebrenica enclave as a platform for launching military attacks, in return for halting the Serbian offensive. The terms…
The Rogue Tribunal: New documentary about the Hague Tribunal
“The Rogue Tribunal – how the ICTY fooled the world” is a passionate and powerful expose. It reveals how the fair and impartial administration of justice -civilisation’s best guarantee of survival- was abandoned and betrayed by the International Criminal Court for the Former Yugoslavia. Meticulously researched by more than thirty academics, historians, journalists and broadcasters…
ICMP: The unseen evidence
One of the key evidentiary issues that arose during several ICTY Srebrenica trials was the right of the accused to conduct an independent examination of the forensic evidence used against them. That right exists as a matter of course in all non-political criminal trials in all civilized legal jurisdictions. Specifically, that is the right of…
