Ratko Mladić dead: the "Butcher of the Balkans" is gone, but his legacy still haunts the region

Ratko Mladić, held responsible for the deaths of at least 8,000 people, has died in a prison hospital. He is expected to be buried with full honours in Serbia, while families of his victims continue searching for remains in mass graves. His war crimes and their denial by parts of Serbian society remain a festering wound in the Balkans.
