A Diplomatic "Hunting Party" – facts never published before by Ms. Hartmann – part 1
Muhamed Sacirbey, Florence Hartmann and Sylvie Matton speak out. Ms. Hartmann makes damning revelations about the betrayal of justice in her new book “Peace & Punishment.”.

Hartmann, Matton and Sacirbey speak of the evidence and the consequences for BiH, Croatia, the region and the victims. CROWN reports, you decide.
