authorities will not recognise press accreditation issued in Podgorica, the agency added. The Yugoslav Army sent back reporters of the Split-based weekly Feral Tribune on Tuesday evening, even though the reporters had already gone through the customs and police control, the same source reported.

However, they were immediately stopped by the Yugoslav Army, and kept in until 9pm when a Yugoslav Army officer told the reporters they had to return to Croatia because their visas and working permits issued in Podgorica were not valid.
