Milorad Novkovic, head of a body supervising the implementation of the strategy and president of the Bosnian High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council, said the processing of such cases was too slow and could not say how many potential defendants there could be.
"The most complex and top priority war crimes cases are still not being processed," he said, adding that some courts and prosecutor's offices, especially on the entity level, lacked manpower, money and technical support to prosecute war criminals.
Novkovic said it was nonetheless important that an appropriate database had been compiled and that effective cooperation in the processing of war crimes had been achieved with the countries in the region in recent weeks.
Representatives of Bosniak associations of war victims and of the families of those killed are very unhappy with the courts' work on war crimes cases so far.
Kada Hotic of the Mothers of the Srebrenica and Zepa Enclaves association, said the commission investigating the events in Srebrenica established that nearly 24,000 people had been involved in the genocide committed there in 1995.
Sacir Srebrenica, president of an association of former prisoners of war, said the State Prosecutor's Office had still not filed indictments and arrested those responsible in 801 cases referred by the Hague war crimes tribunal.
