Hasan Nuhanovic is a high-profile writer and campaigner for the victims of the Srebrenica genocide in the Bosnian Wars of 1992-95. During the war he offered his services to UN troops as an interpreter. His employment with the Dutch Battalion meant he was saved from the massacre, while his family were taken away by Serbian soldiers and killed along with 8,000 other Bosniaks. A tireless campaigner for justice, in 2008 he brought a civil case against The Netherlands for its role in the massacre. In 2013 the Supreme Court of the Netherlands ruled in favor of Nuhanovic, setting a precedent in international law.
