The UN tribunal has indicted Mr Karadzic for genocide over the siege of Sarajevo and the massacre of thousands of Muslims in Srebrenica during the 1992-95 Bosnian war.
He has been at large for 12 years, despite a number of high-profile operations to capture him. Most however have ended in embarrassing failure.
In April 2004, special forces carried out a raid on church buildings in Pale where they believed Mr Karadzic was visiting. He was not there - but a priest and his son were seriously injured in the attempt to find out.
The US government has offered a reward of US$5m for information leading to the arrest of Mr Karadzic or his army chief General Ratko Mladic.
