Former Bosnian Serb leader Momcilo Krajisnik died at the age of 75 as a result of a corona infection. This was reported by the local portal "nezavisne.com", citing the university hospital in Banja Luka,
where Krajisnik was last treated. The convicted war criminal was during the Bosnian War (1992-1995) Parliament President of the separate state of the Serbian Republic (RS) established in Bosnia. He was a close confidante of the then RS President Radovan Karadzic,
whom the Hague Yugoslavia Tribunal sentenced to life imprisonment for genocide and other war crimes in 2019. Krajisnik was arrested in 2000 by French soldiers from the Bosnian peacekeeping force SFOR.
