The Appellate Chamber of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) acquitted Ramiz Duraković, former commander of the 43rd Brigade of the Army of BiH, of charges of war crimes against Serbian civilians in the Čajniče area.
Duraković’s first-instance verdict was passed for the murder of Darinka Pijević and the burning of the houses of Rajko and Miloš Pijević.
“The acquittal of Ramiz Duraković of charges of war crimes against Serbian civilians in the Čajniče area is outside the domain of law, and the Court of BiH closes the possibility for re-prosecution,” said Milorad Kojić, a member of the Alliance of Independent Social Democrats in the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of BiH.
Kojić believes that the judges who made the decision in the Appellate Chamber of the Court of BiH “have neither shame nor disgrace.”
“Imagine that judge who explains that it is indisputable that the crimes occurred, that the accused managed the operation in which those crimes were committed, but that there is not enough argumentation that he had knowledge,” he said.
According to him, since its establishment, the Court of BiH “has put itself in a position to absolve everyone who committed a crime against Serbs and in that way legally closes any possibility for re-prosecution before that or any other court.”
“This is simply an incredible extra-legal practice carried out by the Court of BiH and a repeated terror over the victims and the injured parties,” Kojić concluded.
