THE HAGUE, March 27 (Xinhua) -- Mico Stanisic and Stojan Zupljanin, two former high ranked Bosnian Serb officials, were sentenced to 22 years imprisonment 1 by the trial chamber 2 of the International Criminal Tribunal on Wednesday.
Stanisic and Zupljanin were convicted for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed against non-Serb civilians 3 in various areas of Bosnia and Herzegovina between April and December 1992.
The 58-year-old Stanisic was a minister in the newly established Serbian Ministry 4 of Internal Affairs in Bosnia and Herzegovina. He was convicted of crimes committed in 20 municipalities throughout Bosnia, although he was not found guilty of extermination 5.
The 61-year-old Zupljanin was the chief of the regional security services center of the city of Banja Luka, and also a member of the crisis staff of the Autonomous 6 Region of Krajina. The trial chamber today convicted him of crimes committed in eight municipalities in Bosnia.
Stanisic and Zupljanin were initially 7 indicted 8 by the Tribunal in 2005 and 1999 respectively. Stanisic surrendered and was transferred into the Tribunal's custody 9 on March 11, 2005. Zupljanin was arrested by Serbian authorities and brought to the Tribunal's Detention 10 Unit on June 21, 2008.
