Petronijevic: Karadzic not to appear in court tomorrow either October 26. 2009 Image Former Republika Srpska President Radovan Karadžić will not appear in the Hague tribunal courtroom tomorrow either, a member of his defence team, Goran Petronijević, said. Karadžić wants to be enabled a fair trial by being granted another 10 months for defence preparations, he said. Karadžić will not agree to the appointment of an official defence counsel, as that would be against his will and would represent a breach of his rights, said Petronijević. He added that an eight-member team for Karadžić’s defence had been processing documentation of 1.1 million pages, 45,000 exhibits and more than 1,000 hours of audio and video materials. The beginning of Karadžić’s trial has been postponed for tomorrow, as he did not appear in the courtroom, having informed the trial chamber that he was not ready for trial. A prosecution representative proposed an ex officio defense counsel to be imposed on Karadžić, who is putting up his own defence, but the presiding judge, O-gon Kwon, assessed it was too early to decide on that. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "serbia" group.
