The ministry said in a statement that all police operations confirmed the ministry's commitment to consistently and professionally implement the law on cooperation with the Hague war crimes tribunal.
It added that the arrests could not be brought in connection with persons who the Commission for Srebrenica registered as still employed with bodies and institutions of Bosnia-Herzegovina and who took part in the July 1995 atrocity in Srebrenica, where the Bosnian Serb police and army killed around 8,000 Bosniaks.
