THE HAGUE Nov 2 (Reuters) - Former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic, who has boycotted his trial on genocide charges since it started last week, will appear in court on Tuesday, two of his legal advisers said on Monday.

Karadzic, who will also miss Monday's proceedings, has argued that he needs more time to prepare his defence and a hearing will be held to discuss with Yugoslavia war crimes judges how the trial can proceed if he continues his boycott. (Reporting by Aaron Gray-Block; Editing by Louise Ireland)
