Citing sources in the Croatian government, the Zagreb-based daily
reports that the ICTY Prosecutor's Office would include in the
extended indictment against Gotovina evidence on alleged war
crimes against Serb civilians, injured persons and prisoners of war
from Republika Srpska which took place in Sipovo, Mrkonjic-Grad,
Drvar, Bosansko Grahovo and Jajce.
The daily reminded that the Bosnian Serb entity's office for
relations with the Hague tribunal in September 2002 forwarded
documents which show that low and high ranking officers of the
Croatian army, the Croatian Defence Council and the Army of Bosnia-
Herzegovina were involved in crimes and violations of war
conventions.
According to the documents submitted by Republika Srpska, a total
of 150 civilians and more than 270 members of the Republika Srpska
Army have been killed during the preparation and planning of the
Croatian military and police liberation operation of Storm.
