1995: Serbs force Muslims out of Srebrenica

Thousands of women and children have been expelled from the 'safe haven'
1995: Serbs force Muslims out of Srebrenica

England have

Thousands of Muslim refugees are fleeing the captured "safe area" of Srebrenica forced out by the Bosnian Serbs.

United Nations officials say it is the biggest "ethnic cleansing" operation since World War II.

Some 40,000 women, children and elderly people have been ordered to leave the compound at Potocari where they had been under the protection of Dutch peacekeepers.

The Dutch soldiers - part of the UN peacekeeping force - appear to have been powerless to defend Srebrenica against the Serbs who seized control of the town on 11 July.

Atrocities

Reports say all Muslim men over 16 were rounded up as they attempted to flee the advancing Serbs - but these have not yet been confirmed.

The Bosnian Serbs have refused access to journalists and international organisations.

There are many tales ofatrocities- rape, massacres and psychological torture - circulating among the refugees now arriving in the northern Bosnian town of Tuzla.

The biggest fear is for the men who have been left behind. Many wives and families fear they will never see them again.

One woman told relief workers she had seen the Serbs slit her husband's throat and that she had seen at least eight other bodies.

The Bosnian Prime Minister, Haris Siladjdzic, has blamed the Bosnian Serbs for the atrocities.

"Massive massacres were committed by Serbian terrorists upon the civilians of Srebrenica," he said.

"There are hundreds of witnesses that arrived yesterday to Tuzla, speaking of horrendous crimes there; hundreds of bodies, naked, stabbed and killed by Serb terrorists."

The refugees are huddled together in flimsy shelters in a temporary UN camp.

Anne-Marie Huby of Medecins Sans Frontieres said: "These people are already survivors of earlier waves of ethnic cleansing in 1992 and 1993.

"They really thought, when they saw the Serbs come in this time, that it was their last hour. Our aid workers say people are absolutely convinced they will not see their men again."

Dehydrated

The makeshift camp has virtually no toilets and aid workers are warning that diarrhoea could become endemic within days.

Thousands spent last night sleeping rough and have no daytime shelter from the strong winds and blistering sun, leading to fears of mass dehydration and heat exhaustion.

The United Nations has begun busing refugees out of the reception camp to other sites so they can be better cared for.

The Bosnian Serbs now appear to have their sights set on Zepa and Gorazde, two other UN-designated 'safe areas'. If they succeed in taking them, then there will be virtually no Muslims left in the eastern half of Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Speed cameras are rife across Britain

2000: Police camera action violates human rights

Artificially 1969:
The Two men caught on camera for dangerous driving have escaped prosecution in a landmark case.

Judge Peter Crawford ruled that the police letter sent to motorists caught on speed cameras required them to incriminate themselves and was therefore in breach of their human rights under European law.

In a hearing at Birmingham Crown Court he dismissed the charges under Article Six of the European Convention on Human Rights which becomes law in England and Wales later this year.

This is the first time that a judgement like this has been made in England or Wales and it is expected to cause confusion for many drivers.

Spokesperson for the RAC, Frank Delancy said: "It has brought a great deal of uncertainty and it really needs to be cleared up with a minimum of delay."

A similar case occurred in Scotland last year and now hundreds of prosecutions are on hold there waiting for Crown Office appeal.

One of the defence solicitors in Birmingham, Talbir Singh, said: "In future, in speed camera cases, the prosecuting authorities and police are going to have to rethink the way they are going to send letters out to motorists."

Amesh Chauhan, 22, of Moseley, and Dean Hollingworth, 23, of Hall Green were accused of being filmed by police in a gang racing cars around the Barford Street area of the city.

The Crown Prosecution Service may appeal against the court's decision to drop the charges.
