GOSPIC IS NOT A TOWN OF INCIDENTS, SAYS ADLESIC GOSPIC, Oct 5 (Hina) - President of the Croatian parliament's Committee for Internal Affairs and National Security, Djurdja Adlesic, on Thursday participated in a session of Lika-Senj County Centre for the protection of the dignity of the Homeland Defence War in Gospic. Present at the meeting were also the families of residents recently arrested. "Today's meeting greatly contributed to the political stabilisation of the town of Gospic and the county," the centre's spokesman, Darko Milinovic, said after the meeting, adding the session had been called after an Interior Minister's statement that the arrests in Gospic had not been carried out as a spectacle. Milinovic said the name of the killed of Milan Levar should be issued in the public so the town of Gospic could restore its reputation. Milan Levar, a witness of alleged war crimes against Serb civilians in Gospic during the Homeland Defence War for the international war crimes tribunal in The Hague, was killed in front of his home in Gospic in August. "I heard the messages of the centre and I will pass them on to my colleagues," Adlesic said, adding dialogue with the people and accurate information were necessary. I wanted to show Gospic was a town in which ugly things had happened, a town which will not forget this, but must return to its normal life. Gospic is a town into which anybody can come, it is not a town of incidents, despite of what occurred in it, she asserted. The town and the Lika-Senj County should be helped in their economic development, she said, stressing it was good to notice that everyone in Gospic wanted for the killer of Milan Levar to be discovered.
