Radko Mladic has gone before the Hague tribunal for the first time, and claimed he's gravely ill. The former Bosnian-Serb army general also stated he won't enter a plea to what he called the 'obnoxious' charges against him. Mladic said he needs more time to understand the charges he's facing. A new hearing has now been set for the 4th of July. He's indicted on 11-counts of war crimes including the genocide of around 8000 Muslims. He'd been on the run for 16 years and his arrest and extradition was touted by the EU as a key objective for Serbia to gain membership to the club.
