SARAJEVO, November 10 (FENA) - The Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina sentenced Darko Elez, who was extradited from Serbia earlier this year, to 15 years in prison after he pled guilty to a series of serious crimes, including murder, attempted murder, robbery and other crimes committed between 2005 and 2009.
According to the BiH Prosecutor’s Office, Elez gave up his right to appeal the verdict based on his confession and agreed to cooperate with the prosecutorial institutions of BiH and Serbia in clarifying other serious crimes.
“In accordance with the agreement, the accused will be deprived of illegal proceeds of crime,” the statement said.
He was ordered into detention earlier this year within the case codenamed ‘Lutka’.
Elez was extradited from Serbia earlier this year.
The Prosecutor's Office requested the detention over the crimes in the ‘Lutka’ case, which Elez allegedly committed.
Upon his extradition from Serbia, Elez was detained but on the grounds of the crimes that were documented by the Ministry of Interior of Serbia.
Elez was charged for a series of crimes committed on the territory of East Sarajevo, including mafia murders, extortions, intimidation.
The indictment in the ‘Lutka’ case charges him with organized crime in relation to murders, attempted murders, robberies and other crimes committed in the 2005-2009 period.
He was handed over to Bosnian authorities based on an extradition agreement reached by judicial bodies of BiH and Serbia.
