Meakic was a commander of a concentration camp at Omarska, north-
western Bosnia, where some three thousand Bosnian Muslims and
Croats were detained, harassed and killed in the early 1990s.
The tribunal issued an indictment against him in 1995, and until his
surrender he was one of 18 men on the court's list of indictees
hiding in Serbia-Montenegro.
