Slobodan Milosevic Died

Former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic has been found dead in the detention centre at The Hague tribunal. Milosevic suffered from high blood pressure and a heart condition. Last month the tribunal rejected a request by the former president to go to Russia for medical treatment. Natural death, poisoned, or suicide? Both the former Serbian leader's parents committed suicide, but his lawyer wants an autopsy elsewhere as Mr Milosevic feared he was being poisoned.
Milosevic, 64, had been held at the UN war crimes tribunal for genocide and other war crimes since 2001.
