It is clear Strelkov played a prominent role in the war in Bosnia ... in Visegrad, saying he wanted to fight on behalf of ordinary Serbs.
Bosnian media published the picture of

Rape in the Bosnian war pertains to the characteristic elements of
sexual abuse in the ethnic clash between Serb, Croat and Bosniak
factions in the Bosnian war. While on a lesser scale, women of all
ethnic groups were affected, more specifically, rape was used as a
systematized instrument of war by Serb armed forces predominantly
targeting women and girls of the Bosniak ethnic group for physical and
moral destruction. Estimates of the number of women raped during the war
range from 20,000 to 50,000. This has been referred to as "mass rape",
particularly with regard to the coordinated use of rape as a weapon of
war. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia
(ICTY) declared that "systematic rape", and "sexual enslavement" in time
of war was a crime against humanity, second only to the war crime of
genocide. The Kunarac case was the first time in judicial history anyone
had been found guilty of these crimes.
