OFFICE OF HIGH REPRESENTATIVE CONDEMNS MOSTAR ATTACK ON REPORTS

MOSTAR ATTACK ON REPORTS MOSTAR, May 9 (Hina) - The Office of the High Representative to Bosnia-Herzegovina (OHR), severely condemned Friday's attack against two Croatia's reporters in western Mostar. The OHR issued a public statement last night saying that every assault on journalists is a serious threat to the freedom of the press and to the rule-of-law. The two journalists of the Rijeka-based daily "Novi List", Robert Frank and Ronald Brmalj, were on Friday morning abducted from the Mostar "Ero" hotel by unidentified persons who were wearing civilian clothes. The reporters were taken to a location about 15 km west of Mostar, near Siroki Brijeg, where they were beaten up and ordered to return to Croatia via the border crossing Metkovic. The reporters returned to Rijeka around 8.30 p.m. Friday. Photographer Brmalj said he had sustained a small number of light injuries while his colleague sustained serious injur
MOSTAR, May 9 (Hina) - The Office of the High Representative to Bosnia-Herzegovina (OHR), severely condemned Friday's attack against two Croatia's reporters in western Mostar.

The reporters returned to Rijeka around 8.30 p.m. Friday. Photographer Brmalj said he had sustained a small number of light injuries while his colleague sustained serious injuries to his hand. The OHR said in a statement that they were shocked that nationals of Croatia could face the physical threat in western Mostar because of their political orientation. The OHR also expressed indignation at readiness of some hard-line political elements to resort to violence and harassment with the aim to quell the freedom of speech and the press. The OHR believes that such cowardly elements are obviously in fear of journalistic investigations and opposite opinions. The international community asked authorities to launch a through probe and bring the responsible to justice. It also expressed resoluteness in discovering those who try to deny basic human rights to Bosnia's as well as neighbouring countries' citizens. (hina) ms
