The trial of Visnja Acimovic, who is accused of involvement in the shooting of 37 Bosniak men at Mracni Dol near the Susica detention camp in the Bosnian municipality of Vlasenica in June 1992, opened at Belgrade Higher Court on Monday.

Acimovic told the court that she was not guilty. She said that from the end of May 1992 until the beginning of July that year, she and her family were staying in Backa Topola in Serbia.

Not a surprise, old feuds die hard. Bosniaks I believe are muslim bosnians, and Serbs have been at war with them and their forebearers, the Turks, forever. There is no love lost when the Turks invaded Eastern Europe on their way to Vienna and further, for the glory of a conquering Islam. Serbs, like muslims, never forget who their enemies are. And so it goes.....
