OPATIJA, Jan 18 (Hina) - A Zagreb County Court investigating judge on Monday questioned another witness in the pre-trial proceedings against Nada Sakic, a Croatian war crimes suspect. Danica Zic, born 1919, was questioned in her
apartment in Opatija. Zic was arrested in Karlovac in the spring of 1942 as a supporter of a liberation movement. After a month of questioning and detention in prisons in Karlovac and Zagreb, she was taken to a concentration camp in Stara Gradiska. She was released in an exchange in the autumn of 1943. Zic said in Stara Gradiska she had worked as a seamstress. She saw Sakic armed and in Ustasha uniform, but said she had neither heard nor seen Sakic torturing or harassing anyone. Sakic was extradited from Argentina last year. She is suspected of being responsible, as a former Ustasha official, for the death of inmates in the Stara Gradiska camp during World War Two Croatia.(hina) h
