Kosovo Serb politician Oliver Ivanovic arrested over war crimes

Oliver Ivanovic, a leading Kosovo Serb politician, has been arrested on suspicion of war crimes, according to EU officials on the 28 January 2014.

The EU's police and justice mission in the region said Oliver Ivanovic had been identified as a suspect during a war crimes investigation soon after the 1990s Kosovo conflict ended.

Mr Ivanovic was the first senior Kosovo Serb official to be arrested by the European Union Rule of Law Mission (EULEX) on suspicion of war crimes against ethnic Albanians.
