in chapter 6.3.2 and in relation to the Ležimir camp above, the Trial Chamber finds that the
Accused directed and organized the training of these Unit members from Skelani at Mount
Tara.
1640. The Trial Chamber will now assess the training of PJP members. Based on the
evidence before it, 3240 the Trial Chamber finds that in January 1993, Radovan Stojičić (a.k.a
Badža) and Obrad Stevanović established a Serbian MUP Public Security Service PJP staff in
Bajina Bašta. Around January 1993, Stevanović convinced Simatović and Mijović to have
Unit members train PJP members in return for drafting assistance. On 13 February 1993,
Stojičić ordered that PJP members should be trained at Mount Tara. From about mid-February
to early March 1993, a PJP unit was trained at Mount Tara in mortar action. However, the
evidence is inconclusive as to who trained the PJP unit at Mount Tara. Witness JF-053
testified that this unit was trained by non-commissioned VJ officers. Further, Stojičić’s
February 1993 order specified that PJP members should, preferably, be trained by PJP
instructors at Mount Tara. In the absence of further evidence as to who provided the training
of the PJP members at Mount Tara, the Trial Chamber is unable to determine with sufficient
certainty whether and, if so, to what extent Unit members were involved. The Trial Chamber
has also received evidence on the presence of the Accused in Tara and Bajina Bašta in
January and February 1993. 3241 This evidence does not, however, conclusively establish that
the Accused undertook any actions directed towards the training of PJP members at Mount
Tara during their stay in the area. Accordingly, the Trial Chamber is unable to conclude that
the Accused organized the training of the PJP members at Mount Tara.
1641. The Trial Chamber now turns to the training of a unit called the Drina Wolves. The
evidence 3242 indicates that after February 1993 a unit referred to as the Drina Wolves was
stationed at Mount Tara. In his prior testimony, 3243 Witness JF-052 stated that the Drina
Wolves were subordinate to Franko Simatović. However, the witness did not attest to this
3240 Specifically, the evidence of Dejan Plahuta, Risto Šeovac, Witness JF-053, interview notes (in evidence as
P973), and a letter written by Radovan Stojičić on the training of PJM members at Mound Tara (in evidence as
D415).
3241 In relation to Stanišić see the evidence of Risto Šeovac and Manojlo Milovanović, and a Serbian news report
(in evidence as P1592). In relation to Simatović see the evidence of Witness JF-052, Risto Šeovac, Witness JF-
031, Dejan Plahuta, Miroslav Deronjić, interview notes (in evidence as P973) in combination with the testimony
of Witness JF-094, an excerpt from Mladić’s notebook titled “Plan of action in Operation Udar (in evidence as
P392), an interview with Branislav Vakić (in evidence as P1053), and the Serbian news report (in evidence as
P1592).
3242 Specifically, the evidence of Witness JF-052, a handwritten note by Dragutin Stanojević (in evidence as
P2816), and a background check on Dragutin Stanojević (in evidence as page 3 of P479).
3243 In evidence as exhibit P1587.
