爱达荷州博伊西。美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)为一项调查提供了重要协助,该调查导致米兰·科斯蒂奇(Miran Kostic)被起诉。科斯蒂奇是来自波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那的外籍人士,被指控为战争罪犯。现年66岁、居住在爱达荷州博伊西的科斯蒂奇被控在申请美国公民身份过程中说谎。爱达荷州联邦检察官办公室宣布了这些指控。
BOISE, Idaho — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services provided vital assistance to an investigation that lead to the indictment of Miran Kostic, an alien and accused war criminal from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Kosic, 66, of Boise, Idaho, is charged with lying while trying to to obtain U.S. citizenship. The U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Idaho announced the charges.
根据法庭文件,科斯蒂奇曾是所谓“西波斯尼亚自治省”(APZB)的高级官员。在此职务期间,他用手枪枪柄殴打囚犯,用木棍、木桩和拳头殴打他们,并用脚踢他们,致使其失去意识。此外,他还强迫囚犯相互殴打,并命令其他APZB成员殴打囚犯。在申请成为美国公民的过程中,以及在接受联邦调查局(FBI)和美国公民及移民服务局(USCIS)的问询时,科斯蒂奇一再就其参与和下令实施的虐待行为撒谎,并未披露波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那针对他提起的战争罪指控,此外还有其他谎言。
According to court documents, Kostic was a high-level official in the so-called Autonomous Province of Western Bosnia (APZB). In that role, he pistol-whipped prisoners; beat them with wooden clubs, stakes, and his fists; and kicked them, causing them to lose consciousness. Additionally, he forced prisoners to beat each other, and ordered other APZB members to beat prisoners. In his application to become a U.S. citizen and in interviews with the FBI and USCIS, Kostic repeatedly lied about the abuse he participated in and ordered, and failed to disclose charges filed against him in Bosnia and Herzegovina for war crimes, among other lies.
科斯蒂奇被控企图归化欺诈以及向执法人员作出重大虚假陈述。如果罪名成立,他每项企图归化欺诈指控最高可面临10年监禁,虚假陈述指控最高可面临5年监禁。
Kostic is charged with attempted naturalization fraud and making material false statements to law enforcement agents. If convicted, he faces up to 10 years in prison for each charge of attempted naturalization fraud, and five years in prison for the false statements charge.
