Radovan Karadzic unveils new clean-shaven look

As Radovan Karadzic appears at a war crimes tribunal in The Hague today, fascination with him goes on, with a scrabble to print new beardless pictures of him and the start of Karadzic tours in Belgrade.

But we won't have to wait long to see more pictures of the shaven former Bosnian Serb leader. He is due to make his first public appearance since being arrested when he appears before a judge this afternoon.

The Sun says Karadzic is "clean-shaven for the first time since capture - after ditching his Santa beard to face trial for mass murder".

The Sydney Morning Herald reports that a Serbian travel agency is offering tours of the bars and places Karadzic frequented while he was living incognito as an alternative medicine guru.

The tours, which started last week, take in "Karadzic's flat, the Luda Kuca (Mad House) bar where he drank, as well as a pancake house, a bakery and the haunt where his alter ego, Dr Dragan Dabic, ate potato pies while observing Serbian Orthodox church fasts".

This is an edited extract of The Wrap, guardian.co.uk's daily news digest.
