Mrksic serving ICTY sentence in Portugal

Autor: half
THE HAGUE/ZAGREB, Aug 17 (Hina) - Mila Mrksic, a former Yugoslav army colonel convicted of the massacre at Ovcara farm in eastern Croatia, has been transferred to Portugal to serve his sentence, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in The Hague said on Friday.

Mrksic was sentenced to 20 years' imprisonment for the murder of 194 Croatian prisoners of war at Ovcara after the fall of Vukovar in November 1991.

Captain Miroslav Radic was acquitted of the atrocity, while Major Veselin Sljivancanin's sentence was reduced at appeal from 17 to 10 years. He was released in July 2011, having served two-thirds of the sentence.

Mrksic is the first ICTY indictee who will serve his sentence in Portugal.
