The family's position is that the murder in The Hague was committed by negligent treatment

The son of General Ratko Mladic, Darko Mladic, stated that his position and the position of the family is that the murder of General Mladic was carried out at the Hague Tribunal, by negligent treatment and the intentional administration of too strong opiates, which, as he stated, led to death.

"My father received good care at the Hague Tribunal, but care and treatment are not the same. You can put a man in a seven-star hotel and give him the best food and the best care, but if you treat him wrongly, you cannot save him," said Darko Mladić at the press conference.
