The lack of any prior criminal conviction and the defendant's age -- Banovic was 23 when he served at the camp -- were taken into account as relevant mitigating factors, as were his guilty plea and co-operation with the UN tribunal.
To što ranije nije bio osuđivan i starosna dob optuženog -- Banović je imao 23 godine kada je bio čuvar u logoru -- uzeti su u obzir kao relevantne olakšavajuće okolnosti, zajedno sa njegovim priznanjem krivice i saradnjom sa Haškim tribunalom.
