Former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic is due to begin outlining his defence as his genocide trial at The Hague resumes. The trial has been adjourned since November after the tribunal appointed a lawyer to represent Mr. Karadzic. He has been conducting his own defence and boycotted the start of the trial in October claiming that he needed more time. He insists he is innocent of all 11 charges from the 1992-95 Bosnian wa, but has refused to enter formal pleas. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) entered a not guilty plea for him but Mr Karadzic has refused to attend court sessions. Today he is expected to begin a two-day opening statement before prosecutors present their first witness on Wednesday.
