Ratko Mladic’s lawyer has requested a new
medical examination for the former Bosnian Serb general, arguing that Mladic is
not healthy enough to face charges of genocide at the International Criminal
Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, he said Monday.Mladic would not be able to
participate in a trial because of his ill health, lawyer Milos Saljic said.He
wants Mladic New Soccer

including a gastroenterologist, cardiologist, psychiatrist and neurologist.Mladic,
69, is wanted in connection with the massacre of nearly 8,000 Muslim men and
boys at Srebrenica in 1995. He was captured Thursday after more than 15 years
in hiding.His lawyer expects the Serbian court’s response by Tuesday, he said.
The court has already ruled Mladic is fit to stand trial.Saljic also plans to
file a formal appeal against extradition, he said, adding that it would put it
in the mail by noon (6 a.m. ET) Monday.And he is applying for Mladic’s unpaid
pension from the years when he was in hiding, he said, saying he was acting on
behalf of Mladic’s family.
Chief prosecutor Vladimir Vukcevic denied
Monday that Mladic was in poor health, saying that he was “lively and joking,”
and had asked for Russian classics to read. He said Mladic would be sent to The Hague within days if
his extradition appeal fails. Mladic’s son, Darko Liga
Espanola Soccer Kit, told an ultranationalist rally Sunday that that his
father is sick.”He needs medical treatment that he is not getting,” the younger
Mladic said.He described his father as “a freedom fighter,” and said he had
“defended his own nation, defended his people, which was his job.”
The younger Mladic called on protesters to
keep their demonstration peaceful. “Tomorrow if I’m able to visit my father, I
will tell him of this and he will cry again,” he said.Protesters clashed with
Serbian police at the demonstration.Nearly 20 people were injured in the violence
— seven police and 12 civilians — according to police. They said they made more
than 100 arrests.The Serbian Radical Party Real
Madrid Jerseys Soccer held its protest Sunday in front of Serbia’s parliament
building.Despite calls for calm from the event’s organizers, demonstrators on
the fringes of the rally threw rocks at police.Hundreds of officers, some in
riot gear and others on horseback, moved in against the crowd.
Some beat and kicked protesters. Police
stayed on the streets as the demonstrators scattered.”We are gathered here to
peacefully protest the betrayal by (Serbian President) Boris Tadic and his
bosses in Brussels,”
party leaders told the crowd before the clashes erupted. “We have had enough
economic humiliation by our enemies, who are destroying our country … in every
way.”At the protest — which was attended by members of Mladic’s family and
thousands of others — speakers demanded that Tadic step down and asked that
elections be held immediately.Mladic gave himself up without a fight, despite
having two handguns, according to Rasim Ljajic Madrid
Jersey, the government minister in charge of searching for fugitive
suspected war criminals.
