INVESTIGATION JUDGE AND STATE ATTORNEY JOIN ICTY INVESTIGATORS

GOSPIC, April 17 (Hina) - An investigation judge of the Lika-Senj County Court and the state attorney joined a group of International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) investigators at the Obradovic-Varos location, near the central Croatian town of Gospic Monday morning. The location was also visited by head of the Government's office for cooperation with the ICTY Orsat Miljenic and representative of the Government's commission for missing and detained persons Visnja Bilic. According to Miljenic, their visit aimed at the harmonising of some technical issues. Even though there is no information on what is the group of 20 ICTY investigators doing on their ninth day in Croatia, it is assumed they are conducting an investigation at the spot which a previous group of ICTY investigators marked as the location where a crime was most probably committed last week. Volunteers of the Homeland War staged a protest downtown Gospic against possible trials against Croatian Homeland War soldiers before the ICTY. (hina) it jn
