Private funeral for Bosnian-Croat war criminal
 

ZAGREB: Bosnian Croat war criminal Slobodan Praljak, who swallowed poison before UN judges in The Hague last week, had a private funeral in Zagreb, a Croatian newspaper reported Saturday.
Moments after the UN tribunal for the former Yugoslavia upheld his 20-year jail sentence on November 29, Praljak took his own life in dramatic scenes that were broadcast live from the courtroom. He died in a hospital several hours later and the preliminary results showed he swallowed potassium cyanide and died from heart failure.The funeral ceremony for Praljak was held Thursday at Zagreb´s main Mirogoj crematorium in the presence of close family and a few close friends, ?those he listed in the farewell letter?, influential Vecernji List daily reported Saturday, quoting anonymous sources.
