From Times Wire Reports
A Bosnian Serb accused of torturing, raping and murdering prisoners in detention camps in Bosnia-Herzegovina pleaded not guilty to 46 counts of war crimes.
Dusan “Dusko” Knezevic, 34, is accused of atrocities in the Bosnian Serb-run Omarska and Keraterm camps, where thousands of detainees were beaten, starved and sexually abused, and many were killed, in 1992 during the Bosnian war.
Knezevic surrendered in Banja Luka, Bosnia, last Saturday and was transferred to the U.N. war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
