Explanation

Slobodan Milosevic, the former President of Serbia and Yugoslavia, was the first sitting head of state to be indicted for war crimes. He was put on trial by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), a United Nations body established in 1993 to prosecute serious violations of international humanitarian law [1]. Milosevic faced charges including genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes related to conflicts in Bosnia, Croatia, and Kosovo [2]. While the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) prosecuted similar crimes in Africa, Milosevic's trial at the ICTY remains a landmark case for international legal accountability. Augusto Pinochet faced extradition proceedings but was not tried by a UN tribunal, and Paul Kagame, though a key figure in the Rwandan context, was not the subject of an ICTR trial [2].
