The Mokronoge massacre was the mass killing of nine Bosniak civilians, in the village of Mokronoge, Tomislavgrad in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was committed on 10 August 1993 by Ivan Baković, a soldier of the Croatian Defence Council (HVO) during the Croat-Bosniak War.[1][2] In November 1999, the Municipal Court of Zagreb found Ivan Baković guilty in absentia and sentenced him to 15 year imprisonment.[3] After Ivan Baković was arrested, he was also tried in the Cantonal Court in Livno and found guilty of war crimes committed against the civilian population. In 2004, he was sentenced to 15 year imprisonment.[4][5]
