Chief UN war crimes prosecutor Carla del Ponte has charged that Mladic is not only hiding in Serbia, but receiving protection from a network of supporters within the Serbian military."If the Serbian government were to decide that it really wants to arrest Mladic, it could do so within hours," del Ponte has said.
Glavna tužiteljica UN-ovog suda za ratne zločine Carla del Ponte izjavila je kako Mladić, uz to što se skriva u Srbiji, uživa zaštitu mreže pomagača unutar srbijanske vojske."Kada bi srbijanska Vlada zaista odlučila uhititi Mladića, to bi mogla učiniti u roku od nekoliko sati", rekla je del Ponte.
