(26 Feb 2001) Serbo-Croat/Nat
The survivors from Ahmici, the village overrun by Croats during the war reacted angrily to Monday's Hague verdict.
They said that the Hague cannot be trusted anymore and that justice has not been done.
Bosnian Croats from the Vitez area, however, said the sentences were too long and the men should be released.

"This is stupid I don't trust the Hague tribunal anymore they are cheats. I cant believe that they have sentenced them for 15 and 25 years for what they have done, This is sad - I lost my father mother and brother and another twenty close relatives. I just can't believe this happened."

"I am disappointed by the verdict. How could they give such a small sentence to a man who killed three civilians in front of their mother. There is no justice here."

"I knew personally Kordic during the war and I know he is not guilty, this is too much. If they were not alive we would be dead, all of us Croats here."
