Serbia arrests 7 over 1995 Srebrenica massacre

Serbian police on Wednesday arrested seven people suspected of taking part in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre in Bosnia, in which around 8,000 Muslim and boys were killed, the war crimes prosecutor's office said.
The seven, identified only by initials, were said to be members of a Bosnian Serb wartime special police unit.
They were suspected of having "committed war crimes against the civilian population" notably at the Kravica warehouse outside  Srebrenica where more than 1,000 Muslims were killed in July 1995, the prosecutor said in a statement.
The prosecution is also searching for several more people believed to be in neighbouring countries, the statement said.
After capturing the then UN-protected enclave on July 11, 1995, Bosnian Serbs summarily executed around 8,000 Muslim men and boys in a few days.
The killings were ruled to be genocide by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and the UN's top court, the International Court of Justice.
In 2007, four members of the Serbian paramilitary Scorpions unit were sentenced to between five and 20 years each for their part in the atrocity, the worst in Europe since World War II
Bosnian Serb wartime political and military leaders Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic are currently on trial before the ICTY for genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, some related to the Srebrenica massacre.
