Detention of Zlatan Krstic from Kragujevac, accused by Kosovo Special Prosecution of committing a war crime, was extended for two more months, his lawyer Dejan A. Vasic told Radio kontakt plus.

The prosecution links Krstic with disappearance and later with the murder of four members of the Nuhaj family from the village of Nerodimlje, Urosevac municipality.

Lawyer Vasic said at the moment he is not concerned over extended detention, how much he is concerned about the health situation of his client.

According to Vasic, Krstic was detained “soon after undergoing severe surgical procedure,” adding that at the beginning his condition was stable, however his condition is deteriorating now.

Vasic said he has submitted a request to the judge seeking that medical consilium in Pristina assesses current health condition of his client.
