The Hague: Former Yugoslav
President Slobodan Milosevic was an avid reader of legal
thrillers, a Frank Sinatra fan and a doting husband who called
his wife every day while he was on trial for fomenting the
deadly Balkan wars, according to his chief jailer.
A diplomatic cable published by secret-spilling site
WikiLeaks paints a surprisingly intimate picture of the late
Yugoslav strongman and his life behind bars during his trial
by the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal that was halted by his
fatal heart attack in 2006.
The peek into Milosevic`s relationships with his family
and fellow detainees has upset his one-time protege, Radovan
Karadzic, who has demanded an independent investigation into
what he calls "the interference with the proper administration
of justice."
