Germany extradites war crime suspect

SARAJEVO: Germany on Wednesday extradited a Bosnian Serb to Bosnia who is accused of taking part in the detention and torture of about 120 Muslim Bosniaks in the Bosnian war, and personally killing three others, the Bosnian prosecutor’s office said.

Milorad Obradovic, 49, known as ‘Stiven’, was identified and detained late last year in Munich on an international warrant issued by Bosnia, the office said in a statement.

“The defendant ... is suspected of taking part in the illegal detention and torture of about 120 Bosniak civilians in July 1992 at Miska Glava in Prijedor, who were later executed,” the statement said.

“The defendant is also accused of personally and directly killing three Bosniak civilians at the Rudar football club stadium, shooting from a firearm.” — Reuters
