Former Croatian general and indicted war criminal Ante Gotovina has been arrested in the Canary Islands and is expected to be extradited to The Hague to face trial before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia. Gotovina is accused of violating the laws of war by allowing troops under his command to murder and ethnically clense Serbs during a 1995 offensive, and of coordinating a campaign of plunder and ethnic clensing. He has been hiding from justice since 2001. Needless to say, his capture is excellent news, and a major step forward in the fight for justice for the victims of ethnic clensing in the former Yugoslavia.
