ZAGREB, Sept 20 (Hina) - Shortly before 02.00 pm Friday, the
Croatian government commenced its consultations on the further
conduct in connection to the UN war crimes tribunal's indictment
against the Croatian retired general, Janko Bobetko. #L#
The session, behind the closed doors, which was previously
scheduled for 01.00 pm, began an hour later as some ministers and
the Premier Ivica Racan, were present at the conclusion of the works
in front of a tunnel at Javorova Kosa, which was recently drilled,
as a part of the future Rijeka-Zagreb motorway.
On Thursday, PM Racan told the parliament that on Friday the
government could not make any decision, and that the government's
session would be working and informal at which government members
would be acquainted with all the facts in relation to the tribunal's
indictment against Gen. Bobetko.
The government's office for cooperation with the Hague-based UN
tribunal on Thursday evening received the Bobetko indictment.
There has not been any official information on crimes with which
this 83-year-old general is charged, but the media speculate that
he is indicted for the events in the Medak pocket.
Leaders of the ruling coalition will convene in the government's
offices later in the day.
