After Croatia's interior ministry referred to the police of Bosnia-
Herzegovina's Croat-Muslim federation for help in finding the
sender of a threatening note forwarded to Hina and Croatia's
Catholic Press Agency, it was established the note had been sent
from the Centar Internet club in Zenica.
Centar's owner Elvir Hadzirasidovic told Sarajevo-based
Oslobodjenje daily Abdulah was simply a hacker trying to leave his
mark.
Abdulah's mother told Dnevni avaz daily her son could not possibly
be linked to any terrorist activity because he was not a member of
any group and was interested only in computers.
The Bosnian federation police said yesterday Abdulah had been
charged with terrorism and placed in custody. His case has been
referred to the state prosecutor's office.
