from <strong>May</strong> 1993, the Unit in Bratunac was subordinated to the VRS. In view of the evidence<br />

received, the Trial Chamber is unable to establish that the Accused directed the involvement<br />

of the Unit in Bratunac in these operations. However, in view of its findings in relation to the<br />

Ležimir camp, the Trial Chamber finds that the Accused organized the involvement of the<br />

Unit in these operations.<br />

1704. The Trial Chamber now turns to supplies, finances, and support for the Bratunac camp<br />

and operations. Based on Miroslav Deronjić’s evidence that local Unit members in Bratunac<br />

were paid by the Serbian MUP and that vehicles, ammunition, and special weaponry were<br />

brought from Serbia, and in view of its findings in relation to the Ležimir camp, the Trial<br />

Chamber finds that the Accused organized the financing, logistical support, and other<br />

substantial assistance or support for the Unit at the Bratunac camp and during the Bratunac<br />

operations. This finding is further supported by JATD payment lists from August to<br />

September 1993, on which Mijović, Zečević, and other members of the Unit in Bratunac<br />

appear.<br />

1705. The Trial Chamber now turns to the training of other groups at the Bratunac camp.<br />

Based on the daily report and Ranko Lačević’s certificate, 3393 the Trial Chamber finds that<br />

members of the Unit trained members of the VRS military police and VRS special units at the<br />

Bratunac camp in 1993. In view of its findings in relation to the Ležimir camp, the Trial<br />

Chamber finds that the Accused organized the training of VRS members at the Bratunac camp<br />

in 1993.<br />

1706. Having considered the evidence in relation to the unit commanded by Boško Nešković<br />

(known as the “Red Berets”) in the Bratunac area set out above, the Trial Chamber concludes<br />

that it has received insufficient evidence to establish a significant link between this unit on the<br />

one hand, and the Unit, the Serbian DB, or the Accused, on the other hand. In relation to the<br />

unit commanded by Milenko Prodanović (known as the Mungosi), the Trial Chamber notes<br />

that according to the Zvornik SJB report, Prodanović formed this unit in September 1993,<br />

after “the unit of the MUP of Serbia was disbanded”. JATD payment lists indicate that in<br />

August and September 1993 and from <strong>May</strong> to October 1995 the Serbian DB financed<br />

Milenko Prodanović and another member of this unit. The evidence does not establish any<br />

further links between the Mungosi unit, on the one hand, and the Unit, the Serbian DB, or the<br />

3392 Having considered in particular Miroslav Deronjić’s evidence, the certificate and statement of Ranko<br />

Lačević (in evidence as exhibits P3238 and P3172, respectively), and the statement of Miomir Popović on war<br />

profiteering (in evidence as exhibit P3196).<br />
