PM declines to comment on Glavas's release from detention

SLAVONSKI BROD, Dec 4 (Hina) - Asked by the press on Monday to comment on the release from detention of independent member of parliament Branimir Glavas, a war crimes suspect, Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader said Croatia had a three-branch system of government, that he had never interfered in the judiciary's work and therefore would not comment on the latest move either.
SLAVONSKI BROD, Dec 4 (Hina) - Asked by the press on Monday to comment on the release from detention of independent member of parliament Branimir Glavas, a war crimes suspect, Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader said Croatia had a three-branch system of government, that he had never interfered in the judiciary's work and therefore would not comment on the latest move either.

"Everyone in Croatia is responsible for what they have been elected by Croatian citizens or for what they have been appointed. Therefore, I am at the helm of the executive authority and will not comment on the Croatian judiciary's decision," Sanader said at the start of his visit to Brod-Posavina County.

On Saturday, a Zagreb County Court investigating judge suspended a war crimes probe against Glavas in the so-called Garage Case on account of his deteriorated health and ordered his release from custody.

In the Garage Case, Glavas is suspected of ordering the torture and murder of two Serb civilians from Osijek and the torture of another three in 1991.

He is also one of the suspects in the so-called Sellotape Case, referring to the murder of Serb civilians by the Drava river in Osijek in the winter of 1991/92. The investigation into this case was formally launched on October 30 following an order by Osijek County Court investigating judge Mario Kovac.

After 37 days of a hunger strike, Glavas was released from a prison hospital in Zagreb on Saturday and transferred in a serious condition to the intensive care unit of the Osijek Clinical Hospital where he was subjected to further medical examinations.
