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.
Glavni tužilac suda za ratne zločine Karla del Ponte tvrdi ne samo da se Mladić krije u Srbiji, nego i da mu mreža pristalica u srpskoj vojsci pruža zaštitu. «Kada bi srpska vlada odlučila da zaista želi da uhapsi Mladića mogla bi to da učini za nekoliko sati», istakla je del Ponte.
