Karadzic immunity appeal rejected

He had appealed against a court ruling made in July that a trial would still be held despite his claim of immunity.

However, he was successful in appealing against the start date of his trial at the International War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague.

It was due to start on 21 October but has been postponed for five days as Mr Karadzic wanted more time to prepare.

Immunity claim

He is charged with 11 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity, including genocide.
