very close. Either way, recalling its discussion in chapter 6.7.2 about the attribution of the acts<br />

of the DB employees to the Accused, the Trial Chamber considers that the mere fact that<br />

Kostić and Pavlović were DB employees at the relevant time (assuming it was the case for the<br />

latter), does not mean that their acts can be attributed to the Accused. In the absence of any<br />

further evidence in this respect, the majority, Judge Picard dissenting, cannot determine the<br />

role of the Accused in these arming activities. Consequently, the majority, Judge Picard<br />

dissenting, is unable to conclude that the Accused directed and organised logistical support<br />

for the Zvornik TO.<br />

2286. In relation to the financing of the Zvornik TO, in view of the evidence received, the<br />

Trial Chamber observes that the interim government of Zvornik financed the activities of the<br />

Zvornik TO and paid salaries to its members. In the absence of any further evidence in this<br />

respect, the Trial Chamber is unable to conclude that the Accused directed and organised the<br />

financing of the Zvornik TO.<br />

2287. As for the training, considering the evidence before it, 4888 the Trial Chamber observes<br />

that between <strong>May</strong> and early July 1992, Captain Dragan trained inter alia Zvornik TO<br />

members at the Divič training centre near Zvornik town. In this respect, the Trial Chamber<br />

recalls that Captain Dragan was initially a member of the Unit, but that he ceased to be a<br />

member after August 1991. 4889 The Trial Chamber has further considered the evidence of<br />

Miroslav Deronjić about Simatović’s meeting with the Zvornik leadership, but it is not<br />

convinced that this meeting referred to the Divič camp, which had apparently already existed<br />

at the time, and was in fact closed sometime before 5 July 1992. In any event, the Trial<br />

Chamber does not consider that this evidence alone is conclusive as to the role of Simatović<br />

in the establishment of the Divič centre. Either way, further documentary evidence, as well as<br />

the evidence of Milovanović suggest that the training centre at Divič belonged to the VRS.<br />

Consequently, the majority, Judge Picard dissenting, is unable to conclude that the Accused<br />

directed and organised training for the Zvornik TO.<br />
