Verdict on Kosovo war crimes due

From BBC News:

A United Nations war crimes tribunal is due to deliver a verdict in the case of Serbian ex-President Milan Milutinovic.

Along with five other Serbian ex-officials, he is accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity during the conflict in Kosovo in the 1990s.

This will be the court's first ruling on alleged crimes committed by Serb forces during the Kosovo conflict.

Prosecutors in The Hague are seeking jail terms of between 20 years and life for the men, who all deny the charges.
