In pictures: Milosevic extradition
Former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic has been extradited to the international war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
Several hundred people protested against the extradition in Belgrade but there was joy in The Hague by Bosnians demanding he face charges over Bosnia in addition to the Kosovo indictment.
Mr Milosevic was arrested on 1 April on corruption charges
He was taken from Belgrade's central prison
His wife arrived at the prison to find him gone
His supporters took to the streets in Belgrade to protest
Bosnians at The Hague wanted the charges widened
Some wanted him executed for his alleged crimes
Mr Milosevic was transported in a Dutch police helicopter
He is expected to make his first appearance before the tribunal next week
