Oric and Muhic are charged with the murder of three Serb prisoners in the Zalazje, Lolici and Kunjerac villages in the Srebrenica area in 1992.

The crimes in the Serb villages were not included in the indictment in the proceedings against Oric before the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, which cleared him of any wrongdoing in 2008, reasoning that he had no control over the Army of BiH, which committed the crimes.

According to testimonies in the investigation, Oric ordered the "Condors" - a Muslim unit in Srebrenica - to "cleanse" Zalazje and other Serb villages in the municipality.

One of the witnesses described how a group led by Oric killed several Serb civilian prisoners with knives, while Oric used his own knife to gouge out the eyes of Srebrenica judge Slobodan Ilic and subsequently kill him.
