Archbishop, is that you?
Archbishop or arch-villain?
Here's the first photo of Bosnian Serb war crimes suspect Radovan Karadzic, arrested yesterday and currently en route for a Human Rights showdown at the Hague.
Karadzic was reported to have lived on the run for nearly a decade, moving among a series of safe houses in the mountains to elude his UN pursuers. It now appears that these guerilla tales - mostly reported by foreign hacks who arrived in Serbia hoping to track down Europe's most wanted man - were bollocks.
Karadzic had actually been living in Serbia's capital, Belgrade, where he practised "alternative medicine" under the name Dragan Dabic. Apparently this master of disguise was making a very good living as a quack.
He does, however, do a very convincing impersonation of Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams.
