The list of alleged war criminals offered by U.S. Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger is short, yet it reaches from foxhole to presidential palace. Among the accused:
Borislav Herak, a Serb militiaman who has confessed to killing more than 230 civilians in Bosnia.
Zeljko Raznjatovic, leader of a Serb paramilitary force linked to the mass murder of up to 3,000 civilians.
“Adil” and “Arif,” members of a Croat paramilitary unit that killed more than 50 Serb women and children in August.
Adem Delic, Muslim commander of a Croat-run camp where at least 15 Serbs were reportedly beaten to death in August.
General Ratko Mladic, commander of Bosnian Serb military forces, and his political chief, Radovan Karadzic, who calls himself President of the Serbian Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Slobodan Milosevic, President of Serbia. Eagleburger indicated that the last three could be held responsible for atrocities committed by forces under their command that they did nothing to stop.
