SINJ REMOVED FOR PEOPLE TO REACH SPLIT FOR PROTEST SINJ, Feb 10 (Hina) - Road blocks were removed from the D1 state highway connecting Zagreb and the southern Adriatic city of Split in the southern town of Sinj on Saturday. The road
blocks, set up in protest against an arrest warrant issued for retired general Mirko Norac, a recent war crimes suspect, were removed following an agreement between the Split-based headquarters for the protection of the dignity of Croatia's early 1990s war of independence from the ex-Yugoslavia and a Sinj-based headquarters for the protection of Norac's honour. The blocks were removed to enable people to reach Split for Sunday's protest rally in support of Norac. The Sinj headquarters said today a decision on whether to set the blocks up again would be made after tomorrow's rally.(hina) ha
