Police surrounded the building in which Sljivancanin's apartment
is located and conducted a search finding only Sljivancanin's
daughter and relative in the flat.
Several members of the Committee for Sljivancanin's defence
attempted to prevent the police action. A few days ago the
committee's secretary Vesna Gojkovic stated that Sljivancanin was
no longer in Serbia and Montenegro and that he was prepared to
appear only before a domestic court and not the UN war crimes
tribunal at The Hague.
