From Times Wire Reports

Croatian police have detained an ethnic Serb suspected of taking part in the killing of Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica in 1995, officials said.

The 52-year-old Croatian citizen, identified only as Slobodan D., was arrested Sunday in eastern Croatia after he was recognized as one of the killers of six Srebrenica Muslims on a gruesome video released by the U.N. war crimes court nearly two weeks ago.

He will be charged with war crimes against civilians, and could face 20 years in prison if convicted.
