'WAR CRIMINAL' IN MORRISONS

HE looks like any unassuming grandad popping into Morrisons for a few groceries - but this shopper is a suspected Serbian war criminal fighting extradition from Britain.

Boro Marusic, 64, blended in with other customers as he went about his daily business.

Fellow shoppers had no idea he is alleged to have been part of a violent group led by warlord Slobodan Milosevic.

Since arriving in the UK in 1999, Marusic, who faces up to 20 years in jail if convicted, has held down jobs including as a car bodywork sprayer.

He faces trial for four wartime offences in Croatia in the 1990s under the Croat penal code.

Prosecutors claim he was involved in the abduction of a man while a member of a paramilitary group within the JNA, the former Yugoslavian military force.
