Drmic told the press Glavas was shocked that the investigating judge, for whom he agreed to medical checkups and taking potassium so as to be able to attend hearings at Zagreb's County Court, had spoken to the press about his medical condition.
Drmic said Glavas wondered how could he trust that such a judiciary would be independent in the proceedings against him.
He added that because of that, Glavas was refusing any medical assistance and drinking only minimal water as of yesterday.
Asked if Glavas was aware that he would die unless he stopped with the hunger strike, Drmic said that he was, but that his goal was not suicide by starvation, but pointing to the injustice being done to him.
Drmic said Glavas felt that some persons charged with war crimes could be released pending trial but he could not, and that this was a violation of his human rights.
Another HDSSB deputy, Vladimir Sisljagic, told the press in Osijek that the media, ahead of a parliamentary vote on Glavas's immunity, were depicting Glavas as someone stealthily eating something. He added the case against Glavas was evidently politically rigged.
Glavas was visited in the prison by his brother Tomislav as well, who said that his brother had lost 20 kg.
