    Indictment of Karadzic and Mladic

    U.N. Tribunal charged him and Ratko Mladic, among other things,
    with furthering the internment of thousands of non-Serbs in
    concentration camps, where the prisoners were subjected to inhumane conditions
    and where many died.
    Besides, charged with the responsbility for shelling of Sarajevo, as well as the
    smaller Bosnian towns of Tuzla and Srebrenica, "in order to kill, terrorize and
    demoralize the Bosnian Muslim and Bosnian Croat civilian population."
    Also blamed for abetting the "systematic" campaign of sniping at civilians in
    Sarajevo over the past three years and for the seizure and use as human shields of 284 U.N. peacekeepers in May and June, 1995.
