I am aware that I do not have support in Serbia for what I do and that there are a lot of people within the state insititutions who are attacking me in order to draw public attention away from the misdeeds they committed in the past. Vojislav Šešelj and his ultra-nationalist party, Serb Radical Party [SRS] are among these people. The trial of Vojislav Šešelj for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed during the armed conflicts in the former Yugoslavia, began in The Hague in December 2007. During the main hearing, held in January 2008, defendant Šešelj started revealing information concerning my privacy and confidential contacts with witnesses of war crimes.
The Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) supports post-Yugoslav societies in the promotion of the rule of law and acceptance of the legacy of mass human rights violations, and therefore in establishing the criminal responsibility of the perpetrators, serving justice, and preventing recurrence.

In addition, two members of the Ministry of the Interior of the Republic of Serbia (MUP Serbia) are being tried before the District Court in Požarevac for war crimes committed in Kosovo (Orahovac Case). The Niš District Court brought a first instance decision in the trial of two members of MUP Serbia for a murder committed during the armed conflict in Kosovo (the Emini Case), while in the Pakšec Case the Novi Sad District Court brought a first instance decision for the criminal offences of murder and rape.
