Slobodan Milosevic Found Dead in His Cell
It seems this is another suicide of an imprisoned Serb leader. Milan Babic, the Serb leader of a rebel republic in Croatia and one of the key figures in the Balkan wars of the 1990s, committed suicide in prison a few days ago. Was there a suicide agreement?
Update: UN tribunal says he died of natural causes.
