FENA Press release

SARAJEVO, July 19 (FENA) - The Appellate Panel of the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina confirmed the verdict by which Boško Dević was sentenced to ten years in prison for crimes against humanity committed in 1992 in the Ključ area.

The Court of BiH stated that the Appellate Chamber had sent a decision confirming the Trial Judgment in its entirety, according to BIRN.

In December 2018, Dević was convicted of having participated in the murder of four Bosniaks in the village of Gornji Kamičak near Ključ, on August 11, 1992, as a member of the Army of the Republika Srpska (VRS).

Based on the testimony of the witness, the Trial Chamber then concluded that Dević and three other soldiers came to Gornji Kamičak and carried four men out of the house and took them along the road and killed them, but first beating them severely.

The Court also concluded that these murders were committed within the broad and systematic attack of the military, police and paramilitary formations of the Republika Srpska on the Bosniak and Croat civilians in the Ključ area.

There is no possibility of appeal to this judgment.
