SARAJEVO, APR 22 (AP) - NATO-led troops arrested a Bosnian Serb charged with war crimes allegedly committed when he commanded a prison camp at Susica during the Bosnian war, NATO announced Saturday.

 

A statement said Dragan Nikolic was charged with crimes against humanity, violations of the laws on customs of war and grave breaches of the Geneva conventions.

 

The statement said Nikolic, who was publicly indicted by the U.N. war crimes tribunal in The Hague, was arrested Friday in northern Bosnia and was flown immediately to the Netherlands.

 

NATO troops in Bosnia suffered no casualties during the operation, the statement added.

 

"NATO is determined to play its role in helping to bring indicted war criminals to justice," the statement said, citing NATO's Secretary-General George Robertson. "Those indicted war criminals who remain at large have no permanent hiding place."
