A senior Bosnian Serb official, who was convicted by the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in The Hague, has died of coronavirus at the age of 75, reports BBC.
Momcilo Krajisnik was a key ally of Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, and was found guilty of persecuting and forcibly expelling non-Serbs. Around 110,000 people were killed during the 1992-1995 war.
Krajisnik was arrested in 2000 and later sentenced to 20 years in prison. He was released in 2013 after serving two-thirds of his sentence.
