The Croatian Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor has described as “unacceptable” the war crimes convictions of two former generals regarded as war heroes in Croatia. Ante Gotovina, one of the most senior Croats to be brought to justice, was jailed for 24 years for atrocities against Serbs in 1995 during the breakup of Yugoslavia. His co-accused, Mladen Markac, received an 18-year sentence. The Croatian prime minister said her government would appeal against the judgements.
智利法庭允许对前总统进行开棺验尸
A court in Chile has ordered the exhumation of the remains of the former President Salvador Allende as part of an investigation into the cause of his death in 1973. The exhumation must be carried out in the next 30 days. James Read reports.
Salvador Alledne’s body was found in Chile’s presidential palace after it was attacked by troops and planes during the coup that brought General Augusto Pinochet to power. Witnesses at the time said he killed himself rather than surrender using a rifle given to him by his friend, the Cuban leader Fidel Castro. But some supporters of the left-wing leader think he may have been killed by soldiers. A new investigation into his death was launched in January. It’s one of hundreds of unresolved human rights cases dating back to military rule when thousands of Chileans were tortured and killed.
