VUKOVAR, March 16 (Hina) - Vukovar County Court investigating
judge Nikola Besenski ordered the Vukovar Police Department on Friday to issue
an international warrant for the arrest of former Yugoslav People's Army (JNA)
general Veljko Kadijevic. Kadijevic is one of the nine persons who
were indicted by the Vukovar court in March 2004 for war crimes against
civilians committed during the 1991-1995 conflict, Besenski told Hina, adding
that the Osijek County Court had issued a domestic arrest warrant for the JNA
general in 2000.
"Since that warrant has produced no results, and given recent media
reports on Kadijevic's whereabouts abroad, I have decided to issue an
international warrant," Besenski said.
