The press also speculates about a possibility of Russian authorities being engaged into harbouring Bosnian Serb war criminals.
Dnevni Avaz daily quoted Bosnian intelligence agents as saying that Zelenovic, accused of war crimes perpetrated in the eastern town of Foca, had been in Foca until November 2004 when he departed with false papers via Belgrade for Moscow.
According to the daily, Zelenovic is now staying in Russia and travelling to Belarus occasionally,
The daily also quoted the chairman of the Bosnian Council of Ministers, Adnan Terzic, as saying that Bosnian secret services possessed intelligence that the Russian FSB secret service was harbouring some indictees, wanted by the Hague-based tribunal.
Terzic announced that he, together with the Bosnian Foreign Minister, would call Russia Ambassador Alexander Grishchenko to convey their concern over this problem.
Ambassador Grishchenko, said in Banja Luka on Tuesday his country was meeting its obligations towards the Hague-based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). Grishchenko was commenting on Tuesday's article in London's The Guardian, which said that Russian intelligence services were sheltering Bosnian Serbs indicted by the ICTY, including Gojko Jankovic, who surrendered to the tribunal on Monday.
The ambassador said that Russian prosecutors, based on information from The Hague, had already given instructions "to some bodies".
On Wednesday afternoon the International High Representative to Bosnia-Herzegovina, Paddy Ashdown, met the Russian Ambassador, and Dnevni Avaz daily speculated today that the talks focused on reports in the British and US press.
The Russian Embassy on Wednesday issued a statement in which it no longer categorically ruled out a possibility that some ICTY indictees were in the Russian Federation.
"One should take into consideration that the liberalised regime of reciprocal travels of citizens of Russia and countries of the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (except Slovenia) hinders, to a considerable extent, the control of arrivals of citizens from the said countries to our country. The possibility could be used by Gojko Jankovic to enter Russia with false travel documents," the embassy said.
It added that the Russian authorities were investigating the circumstances in relation to Jankovic who on Sunday surrendered to the Hague tribunal which indicted him for war crimes in eastern Bosnia.
Bosnian Civil Affairs Minister Safet Halilovic said that it would be best if the Peace Implementation Council (PIC), whose member is Russia, would consider the entire matter.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stated on Wednesday evening that Moscow would investigate all allegations about war crimes indictees being hidden in Russia.
