Extract

On 2 August 2000, Trial Chamber III (Judges May (Presiding), Bennouna and Robinson) dismissed Dragan Kolundžija's motion for severance of counts and/or bifurcation of trial, filed on 22 May 2000. Dragan Kolundžija requested in the motion that the Trial Chamber first hear and determine the charges dealing with crimes allegedly committed by the accused inside Keraterm, followed by either a separate trial (‘severance’), or a separate phase of trial (‘bifurcation’), addressing the issues surrounding the crimes allegedly committed outside Keraterm camp. The Trial Chamber dismissed the motion and argued that the defence proposal was impractical and that there was no good reason to conduct the trial in two separate phases.
