Slobodan Praljak has died after taking poison at war crimes court in The Hague.

Upon hearing that his 20-year prison sentence had been upheld, General Slobodan Praljak shouted at the presiding judge: "I, Slobodan Praljak, reject the verdict. I'm not a war criminal." Then he drank from a small bottle or flask and declared: "What I am drinking now is poison."
 The judge suspended the hearing and called for a doctor. The incident happened when the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) was handing down its last judgment in an appeal by six Bosnian Croat political and military leaders, who were convicted in 2013 of persecuting, expelling and murdering Bosnian Muslims during the 1992-1995 war.
