...adjournment of his trial until September. Bagosora will be facing the International War Crimes Tribunal for Rwanda, a special U.N. tribunal set up to punish those responsible for the ethnically-motivated massacres in Rwanda in 1994.

...Arthur Andersen operations responsible for the Enron account, to charges of obstruction of justice for "knowingly, intentionally and corruptly" ordering the destruction of documents related to the collapsed energy firm; in a Houston court. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. VLAJKO STOJILJKOVIC, 65, former Serbian police chief and close aide to deposed President Slobodan Milosevic, in Belgrade. Hours after the Yugoslav Parliament passed a law allowing extraditions to a U.N. war crimes tribunal, Stojiljkovic, who was previously indicted, shot himself in the temple standing in front of the parliament building. He is comatose and on the verge of death. ON TRIAL. FAN SHAORUN...
