Former Bosnian Serb military chief Ratko Mladic loses appeal to overturn genocide conviction |

Former Bosnian Serb commander Ratko Mladic has lost his appeal to have his conviction for genocide and war crimes overturned.

Presiding Judge Prisca Matimba Nyambe said the court dismissed Mladic’s appeal “in its entirety” and affirmed his life sentence at the UN-backed international criminal tribunal at The Hague on Tuesday.

Mladic, 79, is known as the “Bosnian Butcher” for masterminding atrocities such as the Srebrenica massacre and the siege of Sarajevo during the 1992 to 1995 Bosnian War.
