forwarded to the Federal Assembly a bill on the rehabilitation of
political prisoners which refers to the prisoners sentenced in the

The rehabilitation is proposed for all persons who have been
arrested or killed, arrested or sentenced as the victims of
political or ideological repression since November 29, 1945,
regardless of whether regular proceedings were conducted against
them or not.
In its explanation the federal government notes that in the past 50
years, a large number of political processes were conducted in
Yugoslavia against those who thought differently and in order to
rectify that historical injustice, a special law was required.
