He perhaps should have just pleaded guilty and got rid of the lawyers, except he is one so was perhaps not so aware of his cruel and unusual punishment He was a politician - and now he's the big winner in the post-humous politics... He will be remembered forever as he was shredding his accusers. And, by dying in such a neat and timely manner - whether assisted or not - he cast a cloud of doubt over his jailers, for eternity.

NEWS: Lawyer says Milosevic feared he was being poisoned Sat Mar 11, 2006 6:07 PM GMT today.reuters.co.uk BELGRADE (Reuters) - Former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic feared he was being poisoned in his detention cell in The Hague, his lawyer Zdenko Tomanovic said on Saturday hours after the tribunal announced Milosevic's death. "Today, I have filed an official request to the tribunal to have the autopsy carried out in Moscow, having in mind his claims yesterday that he was being poisoned in the jail," Tomanovic told reporters in The Hague. Acting on a request from Milosevic, Tomanovic said he had made a request for protection for his client to the Russian embassy in The Netherlands and to the Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow. "I demanded protection for Slobodan Milosevic over his claims that he was being poisoned. I still haven't received any reply and that's all I have to say at this time," the lawyer said. Milosevic conducted his own defence at the war crimes trial. Tomanovic acted as his legal representative in other matters as well as helping him prepare his defence.
