A tribunal in the Hague has sentenced former Kosovo President Hashim Thaci to 25 years in prison for war crimes. It dates back to the 1990s war of independence from Serbian control. Thaci and his co-defendants were convicted of several charges including murder, but the judges rejected the charges of targeting a civilian population.
