Investigating judge again rejects request for detention of Branimir Glavas

OSIJEK, Oct 25 (Hina) - Osijek County Court investigating judge Mario Kovac on Wednesday again rejected a request for detention of independent member of Parliament Branimir Glavas, who is suspected of involvement in war crimes against civilians, until it was decided whether the court had territorial jurisdiction over the case or not.
OSIJEK, Oct 25 (Hina) - Osijek County Court investigating judge Mario Kovac on Wednesday again rejected a request for detention of independent member of Parliament Branimir Glavas, who is suspected of involvement in war crimes against civilians, until it was decided whether the court had territorial jurisdiction over the case or not.

The decision came after a panel of judges of the same court asked the investigating judge to reconsider the request by the County Prosecutor's Office.

The County Prosecutor's Office has 24 hours to appeal against the latest decision, County Court spokesman Miroslav Rozac told reporters.

Investigating judge Kovac issued a decision on Monday declaring the Osijek County Court as not having territorial jurisdiction over conducting an investigation and ordering detention of Glavas, explaining that the Zagreb County Court was already conducting an investigation into Glavas's alleged role in the torture and murder of Serb civilians in 1991.

The Osijek County Prosecutor's Office believes that proceedings against Glavas should be conducted in Osijek, because an investigation has already been launched and detention has been ordered for six suspects in the case of murder of Serb civilians on the Drava river bank at the end of 1991 and the beginning of 1992. This case is also known as the Sellotape case and Glavas is a suspect.

The case being investigated by the Zagreb County Court, which relates to the torture of three civilians and murder of other two in the autumn of 1991, is known as the Garage case.
