Serbia Says Convicted War Criminal Mladić Will Be Buried With ‘Highest Honors’

Serbia says former Bosnian Serb military commander Ratko Mladić will receive the country’s highest burial honors, despite his conviction for genocide and war crimes. The decision is likely to provoke anger among victims’ families and communities affected by the Bosnian war. Mladić was sentenced to life imprisonment by an international tribunal for his role in atrocities, including the Srebrenica massacre. Serbian officials defend the planned honors as a matter of national recognition, while critics say they glorify convicted war criminals.
