DC party leader urges protection from parliamentary committee

ZAGREB, Nov 16 (Hina) - Democratic Centre (DC) parliamentary deputy Vesna Skare Ozbolt has requested the parliamentary Committee on the Constitution, Rules of Procedure and Political System to discuss an incident which occurred on Wednesday, when Parliament Speaker Vladimir Seks ruled her out of order during a discussion on the proposal by the Credentials and Privileges Commission to strip of immunity MP Branimir Glavas, who is charged with war crimes against civilians in 1991.
ZAGREB, Nov 16 (Hina) - Democratic Centre (DC) parliamentary deputy Vesna Skare Ozbolt has requested the parliamentary Committee on the Constitution, Rules of Procedure and Political System to discuss an incident which occurred on Wednesday, when Parliament Speaker Vladimir Seks ruled her out of order during a discussion on the proposal by the Credentials and Privileges Commission to strip of immunity MP Branimir Glavas, who is charged with war crimes against civilians in 1991.

Speaking to reporters in the parliament headquarters on Thursday, Skare Ozbolt said that Seks's decision was unjustified and unfair, because she did not get off the subject of the discussion or insult anyone.

She recalled that Seks had ruled her out of order when she mentioned the Osijek Crisis Headquarters, which in 1991 was headed by Seks.

Skare Ozbolt said that Seks's act was a defeat of democracy and yet another attempt to exert political pressure on the DC.

She repeated that the Glavas case was influenced by politics and recalled that it was only 20 days ago that the Credentials and Privileges Commission had approved Glavas's detention on two grounds - tampering with witnesses and the gravity of the crimes he was charged with.

"I won't be silenced, I will continue to urge investigation of all participants in those events," she said, wondering why "all witnesses have been questioned, except for one man, who was Glavas's chief in 1991".

Commenting on Skare Ozbolt's claims, Gordan Jandrokovic, spokesman for the HDZ club of deputies, said that she had acted inappropriately and that her accusations against Seks were false.

He also dismissed speculation that HDZ deputies were divided over the Glavas case.

"There are no divisions whatsoever regarding that case," he said, dismissing Skare Ozbolt's claim that the HDZ was afraid of Glavas and had therefore changed its position on his detention.
