Bosnian War Crimes Suspect Faces Citizenship Charges | Boise News

A 66-year-old man from Bosnia, Miran Kostic, faces serious federal charges for allegedly lying about his wartime past to gain U.S. citizenship. Accused of brutal acts including pistol-whipping prisoners and forcing beatings, he could face up to ten years per count for attempted naturalization fraud and five more for false statements to authorities.

His case is now in Idaho federal court as investigators dig deeper into his applications and interviews with immigration agencies.
