Contents Summary
November 29, 1996: The first war criminal has been sent to prison. The Tribunal has sentenced Drazen Erdemovic, a Bosnian Croat, to 10 years in prison for crimes against humanity. In Belgrade, Yugoslavia, more than 100,000 people gathered for the largest protest since the fall of communism. Sheila MacVicar reports on the twelfth day of citizen protests demanding the resignation of President Slobodan Milosevic. Milosevic used the courts he controls to annul the local elections won by opposition parties. Statements are made by two protesters. Footage includes people throwing eggs at the state-controlled media building, and Milosevic and his wife casting their votes.
