Mr Jokic was making his first appearance at the court since he surrendered himself to the international war crimes tribunal at The Hague on Monday.

the bombardment |
They include the murders of 43 civilians, wilful damage to historic monuments in Dubrovnik and the destruction of nearby villages.
Three other former Yugoslav officers have also been accused of responsibility for civilian deaths during the shelling.
One of them, Lieutenant-General Pavle Strugar, also surrendered to the tribunal and entered a not guilty plea last month.
The artillery siege of Dubrovnik - a medieval walled city and Unesco World Heritage site - began after Croatia declared its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, sparking years of war in the Balkans.
More than 500 of the city's buildings were destroyed or damaged.
