Its a tricky case. The Hague is not responsible for decerning which country was responsible for the war in Bosnia and hence laible to pay reparitions. Any attempt to do so or disclose documents that could bias such a case in another jurisdiction would undermine the neutrality (and hence integrity) of the Tribunals. Bitter pill to swallow but in strictly legal terms her prosecution was the correct thing to do.
