UN court to probe Bosnian Croat war criminal's deathA UN tribunal said Friday it will launch an inquiry into the death of a Bosnian Croat war criminal, after he appeared to drink poison in front of judges as they upheld his sentence. The internal probe will seek to shed light on how he managed to bypass tight security to smuggle toxic liquid into the courtroom and commit suicide on Wednesday. The probe, which will open next week, will complement the ongoing Dutch investigation into the suicide of Slobodan Praljak at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), the court said.
