Ratko Mladic trial: Slobodan Milosevic and Radovan Karadzic the other high profile war criminals

Slobodan Milosevic was arrested in a village near Belgrade in April 2001,
ending 15 years as one of the world’s most-wanted fugitives.

He was put on trial the following year.

But he died of a heart attack in his cell in The Hague in 2006 before judges
could deliver verdicts in his trial.

Born and raised in Yugoslavia, he studied law before becoming an economic
adviser to the mayor of Belgrade.

In 1987, as number two in the Serbian Communist Party, he was sent to the
troubled province of Kosovo, telling rioting Serbs: “No one should dare
to beat you again.”

Within two years, he was president of Serbia, and proceeded to take Serbs into
a series of disastrous wars with Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia and, later
Kosovo.
