Mladic Trial delayed due to failure of prosecutors to disclose evidence

You can read the full report on the BBC page including a short video clip of Mladic. I've also linked to a few BBC news podcasts covering the trial.



It has been an embarrassing day for international justice. As grieving relatives sat through the chilling detail of the worst atrocity on European soil since World War II, it emerged that the prosecution had failed to disclose thousands of pages of evidence that should have been shared with the defence.
Gen Mladic's lawyers told the court they need six more months to process those documents.

UK economic growth forecasts have again been revised downwards - David Cameron has warned that the crisis in the eurozone is affecting British economic prospects and urged the eurozone to move quickly to resolve the crisis over Greece. And, the former Bosnian Serb general, Ratko Mladic, has gone on trial, accused of genocide and crimes against humanity.
