"Bosanski Samac" Case: plea of the defendant Todorovic Postponed.
The initial appearance for Stevan TODOROVIC, which began today, will resume at a later date yet to be decided.
This follows a request by the accused that he was medically unfit to enter a plea of guilty or not guilty and wanted to undergo some additional medical tests before doing so.
After short deliberations, Trial Chamber I, Judge Jorda presiding, accepted the request after ruling that the parts of the indictment relevant to the accused be read aloud in court. In the meantime, the Trial Chamber entered a provisional not guilty plea on the defendant’s behalf.
