This information was confirmed for N1 by the office of Mahmuljin’s lawyer, Vasvija Vidovic.

Mahmuljin was previously sentenced to 10 years in prison. Prosecutors accused him of failing to prevent war crimes against prisoners of war and ethnic Serb civilians in the area of Zavidovici in 1995 although he had the power to do so as commander of the 3rd Corps of the RBiH Army and that he did nothing to punish the perpetrators.

At the plea hearing held on 4 February 2016, Mahmuljin pleaded not guilty to war crimes against prisoners of war, war crimes against the wounded and sick and war crimes against civilians.
