ZAGREB POLICE STEP UP SECURITY MEASURES FOR DINAMO-HAJDUK MATCH ZAGREB, May 15 (Hina) - Police in the Croatian capital have braced themselves for Tuesday's soccer match between Dinamo and Hajduk. Special measures are being taken to
boost security during the return game in the finals of the national Cup, scheduled for Tuesday. The match will be covered by 1,500 policemen because it is regarded as a high-risk event, said Zagreb police spokesman Goran Volarevic on Monday. Asked whether clashes between rival clubs' fans - Dinamo's "Bad Blue Boys" and Hajduk's "Torcida" - are expected, Volarevic said such a possibility existed. The first match played in Split fourteen days ago was marked by riots and conflicts between fans and policemen. About 100 people were taken to police stations and less than one hundred were injured.(hina) jn ms
