Montenegro, Feb 1, SPA -- One of the top four Serb generals sought by the U.N. war crimes tribunal for alleged atrocities committed in Kosovo will surrender this week to the Netherlands-based court, a newspaper reported Tuesday. Gen. Vladimir Lazarevic, a top army commander in Kosovo in 1999, will travel to The Hague on Thursday, the independent Vecernje Novosti newspaper said. Serbia's government, which negotiated Lazarevic's surrender, will finance his defense during the war crimes trial and will offer "all possible guarantees" to the U.N. tribunal for him to be released from detention in The Hague pending the start of legal proceedings against him, Vecernje Novosti said.
