Serb nationalists again clash with police over Karadzic arrest

Jul 23, 2008, 18:02 GMT

Belgrade - Several hundred Serb nationalists protesting the arrest of Bosnian war crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic again clashed with police in downtown Belgrade late Wednesday, news reports said.

There were clashes outside the Turkish embassy, and journalists were also attacked and their equipment damaged. Senior members of the ultranationalist Radical Party also took part, the reports said.

The Radicals were the only Serb party not to welcome Karadzic's arrest, which they compared to killing Serbia.

Karadzic, indicted on charges of genocide and crimes against humanity by the UN war crimes tribunal in The Hague, was arrested Monday night in Belgrade after 12 years on the run.
