Croatian Serb war crimes defendant Hadzic dies: state media
Croatian Serb rebel leader Goran Hadzic, tried by a UN war crimes court over his role in the 1991-1995 war in Croatia, died Tuesday, state-run Tanjug news agency reported.
"After a severe illness Goran Hadzic died today," the agency said quoting the regional hospital of Vojvodina province.
Hague-based UN war crimes judges had in April ordered an indefinite halt to the trial of Hadzic, 57, as he battled the advanced stages of terminal brain cancer.
