Bertic was arrested in the vicinity of his apartment in the Zagreb
neighbourhood of Dubrava, Ostojic told a news conference.
On March 22, Bertic shot at Capau in broad daylight, after Capau
shot at Vjeko Slisko, who is believed to be one of the leading
figures of the Zagreb underground.
Slisko's bodyguard Bertic escaped after the shooting and the police
issued a warrant for his arrest.
Capau died in hospital from his injuries two days later, while the
seriously injured Slisko, the target of the fifth assassination
attempt, is hooked to life-support machines.
