Hadzic's capture came less than two months after authorities in Serbia arrested Bosnian Serb wartime commander Ratko Mladic, who is currently on trial at The Hague war crimes tribunal.
Hadžićevo hapšenje dolazi manje od dva meseca nakon što su vlasti u Srbiji uhapsile ratnog komandanta bosanskih Srba Ratka Mladića, kome se trenutno sudi u Haškom tribunalu za ratne zločine.
