Serbia's Justice Minister Nenad Vujic said Friday that former Bosnian Serb military leader and convicted war criminal Ratko Mladic "will receive all the military and state honours to which he is entitled"

Mladic died on Thursday while serving a life sentence in The Hague for war crimes committed during the Bosnian war in the 1990s

"It is certain that General Mladic will receive all the military and state honours to which he is entitled, as far as the state is concerned," Vujic told the K1 broadcaster

Serbian officials await details on when authorities in The Hague will release the body, he said

"We are ready to leave for The Hague as soon as we learn what the next steps are"[…]
His conviction for wartime killings in former Yugoslavia during the chaos that resulted after the fall of communism led the international press to dub him the "Butcher of Bosnia"
