The Bosnian prosecution on Thursday charged Radovan Paprica, alias Papro, and Slavko Ognjenovic, alias Macak, with committing crimes against humanity in Foca in eastern Bosnia in 1992 while they were members of the Bosnian Serb Army.

“The indictees are charged with war crimes, including rape and sexual abuse during the war, which had grave consequences for those who were injured,” the prosecution said in a statement.

The indictment has been forwarded to the state court for confirmation.
