Radovan Karadzic has been sentenced to 40 years in prison after being found guilty of genocide and multiple crimes against humanity.

Former Bosnian-Serb leader Radovan Karadzic has been found guilty of genocide in relation to the 1995 massacre in Srebrenica in which 8,000 Muslims died.

The slaughter of men and boys in Srebrenica was the single worst atrocity of the Bosnian war.

Former Bosnian-Serb leader Radovan Karadzic has been cleared of one count of genocide.

However, judges have yet to rule on a second genocide charge brought in relation to the 1995 massacre in Srebrenica in which 8,000 Muslims died.

Karadzic, 70, has been on trial at the Hague after being accused of genocide and crimes against humanity during the Bosnian war of 1992-1995.
