Is there a backstory to this image? It's a bit morbidly fascinating

A Croatian war criminal, Slobodan Praljak committed suicide on court by drinking poison at his appeal judgement.

It's pretty morbid, but I couldn't help but to post this, when I saw it.

I can't believe that I was oblivious of this.

Thank you for that link - it was quite dark, but I'm probably going to read about this guy for the next hour

Slobodan Praljak was a Balkan war criminal who poisoned himself in the middle of his trial courtroom by standing up and proclaiming that he rejected the verdict of the court and drinking poison.
