According to the court's findings, over the period between May and July 1992, defendants AA and AB, at the time members of the Serbian Territorial Defence force, engaged in a campaign of terror against Bosnian civilians confined in makeshift prisons at the sites of Čelopek, Ekonomija and Ciglana. The campaign included inhumane acts, torture and several killings (see Zvornik I). |
