Serbian Justice Minister Nenad Vujic announced on Friday that former Bosnian Serb military leader Ratko Mladic will be interred with state and military honors. Mladic, who was serving a life sentence for genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, died on Thursday while incarcerated in The Hague.
Known for his role in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre, Mladic had been suffering from health issues, including multiple strokes, prior to his death. The decision to grant him state honors follows his conviction for his leadership during the Bosnian War.
