A United Nations war crimes court has denied a request from Ratko Mladic, an infamous Bosnian Serb military leader during the 1992-1995 Yugoslav wars, for early release due to poor health. The court stated that while Mladic's deteriorating physical condition warranted consideration for early release, it was not sufficient to justify it given his historical crimes. Mladic's request had been made despite his conviction and sentencing for war crimes committed during the Srebrenica massacre. His current status remains unchanged following the court's decision.
