Red Star Belgrade Fans Display Tifo of Convicted War Criminal Mladic Before Derby
Supporters unveiled the display ahead of the club's derby win over Partizan Belgrade on Sunday, according to BBC Sport.
Fans of Red Star Belgrade unveiled a tifo depicting Ratko Mladic, a former Bosnian Serb military commander convicted of war crimes, before their derby match against Partizan Belgrade on Sunday, BBC Sport reported.
According to the report, the display was shown ahead of kickoff, which Red Star went on to win.
Mladic was convicted by a United Nations tribunal for genocide and other war crimes committed during the Bosnian War in the 1990s, including the Srebrenica massacre, in which more than 8,000 Bosniak men and boys were killed. He is currently serving a life sentence.
BBC Sport's report did not provide further details on the size or context of the tifo, nor any immediate response from club officials or football governing bodies.
