Croatia's Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic slammed the "injustice" of a UN tribunal and expressed his condolences Wednesday after a Bosnian Croat war criminal died after drinking poison in the courtroom.
"I want to voice my deepest condolences to the family of General Slobodan Praljak," Plenkovic told a news conference.
"His act, which we all unfortunately witnessed today, speaks mostly about the deep moral injustice towards six Croats from Bosnia and the Croatian people," he said.
Former military commander Praljak, who died in hospital, was one of six Bosnian Croats whose convictions were upheld by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague.
