Bosnian Croat war criminal Slobodan Praljak died after taking potassium cyanide in The Hague's courtroom, Dutch prosecutors say, citing the results of a preliminary post mortem examination.
"This has resulted in a failure of the heart, which is indicated as the suspected cause of death," they said.
Praljak drank from a vial after his 20-year term for war crimes in Bosnia in the 1990s had been upheld on Wednesday.
Dutch authorities are investigating how he smuggled poison into the court.

It’s not like he could have been murdered, to silence him from involving many others across Europe who portray themselves as the bastions of justice.

Murdered? No, you just have to watch what happened to see that he was not murdered.

Either way, they beat the hangman, because they knew what they did was criminal.

Not necessarily. It could be just one of those "I'd rather kill myself than allow myself be executed by these hypocrites who believe they have some kind of authority over me and are too stupid to understand what we were fighting for."

He saved some pile of money from being drained detaining him for 20 years.
