Early release granted to Bosnian Croat war criminal

THE HAGUE: A United Nations court on Monday granted early release to a former Bosnian Croat defense minister convicted of war crimes, including murdering and deporting Muslims in Bosnia in the early 1990s. The International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals, based in The Hague, ordered Bruno Stojic released from detention in Austria to return to Croatia. The 70-year-old had behaved well in prison, admitted the gravity of his crimes and was unlikely to reoffend, said presiding judge Graciela Gatti Santana in her decision.
