PARIS — A former senior commander of the Bosnian Serb Army, Zdravko Tolimir, was convicted of genocide on Wednesday and sentenced to life in prison for his role in the killings of thousands of prisoners near the Bosnian town of Srebrenica in July 1995.... The court has issued genocide convictions only for crimes committed in Srebrenica, angering victim and human rights groups that are convinced that genocide also occurred in northern and eastern Bosnia, where Serbian forces began their ethnic cleansing campaign in 1992, expelling thousands of non-Serbs. Others were imprisoned, tortured, raped and at times burned alive in their homes.

SGB Statement re Dissenting Opinion:
Judge Prisca Matimba Nyambe dissented on all grounds ignoring a mountain of evidence against Tolimir. She is from Zambia, the corrupted impoverished country with no standards in law or education. Judging her narrow-mindedness during the trial, we wonder who put this judge on the bench at the Hague tribunal? During Tolimir's trial, Judge Nyambe was 100% pro-Serbian, frequently siding with Serbian quazi-expert witness testimonies even when other judges unanimously dismissed tgem. She was readily accepting a heavily discredited Serbian version of events in/and around Srebrenica. Her dissenting opinion is devoid of any professional analysis, facts and reason, and feels like a third grader wrote it.
