ZAGREB, Oct 19 (Hina) - Letters containing white powder are probably being sent by disturbed persons who want to sow panic among citizens. All microbiological tests so far have shown the letters do not contain any anthrax spores, an
epidemiologist at the Croatian Public Health Institute (HZJZ), Mate Ljubicic, said on Friday. The institute has so far received around a hundred such letters which were sent to addresses across Croatia, and 40 percent of the letters have been analysed. Suspicious parcels should best not be opened, he said, adding citizens should place such parcels in a plastic bag and call the police.(hina) lml
