Svilanovic told the Radio B92 station on Sunday that in the meantime
four indictments had been made public. He said this referring to the
indictments against four police and army generals.
"As far as I know, another three investigations against citizens of
Serbia-Montenegro are under way," the minister said.
He added that Belgrade was considering possibilities of trying the
four generals in the country. The national council for cooperation
with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia
(ICTY) will hold a session in coming days to discuss the issue.
