Belgrade's Radio B92 quoted unofficial sources as saying that the
list, which has not been published, contained the names of several
senior officials from the former Yugoslavia and foreign countries,
including "even those believed not to be friendly to the accused".
A statement of reasons for such a large number of witnesses was
written in more than 5,000 pages.
Milosevic is scheduled to start presenting his evidence and hearing
witnesses on June 8, and the court has ruled that this process should
not take more than 150 working days.
