Magdalena Spalińska, Spokesperson for Registry and Chambers, made the following statement:

Good afternoon,

In the Prlić et al. case, the Prosecution filed yesterday its notice of appeal against the Trial Chamber judgement. It presented four grounds of appeal and asked for increase of the sentences.

On 21 June the Prosecution was ordered to file its notice of appeal within 90 days after the judgment was handed down. The Defence for both Slobodan Praljak and Berislav Pušić filed their notices of appeal in June, whereas Jadranko Prlić, Bruno Stojić, Milivoj Petković and Valentin Ćorić are ordered to do so within 60 days after the English translation of the judgement is issued.
