Italian noble investigated over Sarajevo ‘human safari’ killings

An Italian aristocrat is under investigation for allegedly paying to shoot people during the siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s, in what has been described as a “human safari.” The inquiry, led by magistrates across Europe, has intensified following new evidence, including a seized photograph and silencer. The suspect, a Milanese nobleman, is believed to have participated in killings for sport during the conflict. The case has drawn comparisons to other war crimes inquiries and has shocked the international community, with reports of payments of up to £70,000 for such acts. The ex-wife of a man allegedly involved has reportedly given testimony about the killings, though details remain under seal. Investigations are ongoing, with authorities coordinating across multiple jurisdictions.
