War criminal or Serb hero: reactions to Ratko Mladic's death reflect Balkan divisions
Ratko Mladic died in UN custody on Aug 27 while serving a genocide life sentence. Republika Srpska's Dodik called the death a killing, described it as organized, and hailed Mladic as a fighter for Serbian freedom at a Banja Luka memorial. The death itself is confirmed across the Washington Post, CNN, Al Jazeera, NPR and ABC. A sitting entity leader publicly honouring a convicted genocidaire measures how little the Hague's findings are shared.
