On 19 July 2011, the Appeals Chamber of the ICTY upheld the first instance decision to convict Hartmann of contempt of court for the section of text called "Vital genocide documents concealed" in her book, ''Paix et Châtiment, les guerres secrètes de la politique et de la justice internationales'', which included the "legal reasoning" of two confidential appellate rulings of the UN Tribunal approving black-outs and exclusions from critical historical war documents showing Serbia's involvement in the Bosnian war of the 1990s (see (), ()). She was fined €7,000 (£6,100). The fine was later converted into a seven-day prison sentence, for which the ICTY issued an arrest warrant.〔(Florence Hartmann ICTY indictment ), icty.org; accessed 15 April 2015.〕 In December 2011, France refused to extradite her.〔(France will not extradite former spokeswoman to ICTY ), hurriyetdailynews.com; accessed 3 October 2015.〕 ==Career== Hartmann worked for eleven years for the French daily ''Le Monde'' as a journalist in charge of the Balkan desk.
