Delivering the sentence Monday, presiding Judge Dragan Tacic said Nikolic was guilty of "breaking international rules of war by killing two ethnic Albanian civilians, committing war crimes against the civilian population".
Izričući kaznu u ponedeljak, predsedavajući sudija Dragan Tacić rekao je da je Nikolić kriv za «kršenje međunarodnih pravila rata zato što je ubio dvojicu civila kosovskih Albanaca, počinivsi tako ratne zločine nad civilnim stanovništvom».
