Prosecutors ask for life in the Karadzic case

Prosecutors have demanded a life imprisonment against Radovan Karadzic on appeal.

Karadzic, now 72 years old, was sentenced to 40 cubits in 2016 for his role in ethnic cleansing in the country torn apart by civil war. For example, the judges found him guilty of genocide around Srebrenica, where thousands of Muslim men were executed in 1995.

Karadzic was then acquitted of another charge for genocide. Prosecutors want him to be convicted of this by the UN court, the successor of the Yugoslavia Tribunal. The former leader of the Bosnian Serbs says himself to be innocent.
