ALIJA DELIMUSTAFIC WAITS FOR EXTRADITION

BELGRADE, April 17 (Hina) - Former Bosnian Interior Minister Alija Delimustafic, sentenced to three months in prison for forging identification documents, will remain in extradition detention centre until a decision on his extradition is passed, Yugoslav Justice Minister Nebojsa Sarkic told Yugoslav News Agency Tanjug on Wednesday.#L# The Belgrade District Court has conducted all legal activities regarding the extradition request and returned the case to the Ministry of Justice, which is authorised to pass a final decision on the extradition, the president of the court, Vida Petrovic-Skero said. According to Sarkic's assistant, the extradition request, submitted by Bosnia-Herzegovina, was submitted a long time ago, and recently the Justice Ministry received the extradition request from Germany. Yugoslav Federal Justice Minister Savo Markovic said both requests were legitimate because Delimustafic was wanted for finical transactions and embezzlements, Sarkic said. He said that at the end, Delimustafic would most probably be extradited to Bosnia, because he is Bosnian citizens and Bosnia demanded his extradition first. (hina) it
