Prosecutors need to establish that the former Yugoslav leader, who as president of Serbia at the time officially had no power over Bosnian Serb forces, exercised de facto control over them and failed to prevent the atrocities they committed or to punish them afterwards.
Tužioci treba da dokažu da je bivši jugoslovenski lider, koji je u to vreme bio predsednik Srbije i zvanično nije imao moć nad snagama bosanskih Srba, vršio de fakto kontrolu nad njima i da nije sprečio zločine koje su te snage počinile ili ih kasnije sankcionisao.
