The Hague - The genocide trial of a former Bosnian Serb hospital director entered its second day yesterday, with defence lawyers seeking to undermine testimony given by the prosecution's first witness.
Mr Milan Kovacevic (57) is the first accused to answer the gravest war crimes charge arising from Bosnia's bloody war in which more than 250,000 people died between 1992 and 1995. He has pleaded not guilty to helping set up camps in the Prijedor region of north-western Bosnia in which Muslims and Croats were raped, tortured and killed.
