COMMISSION INQUIRING INTO CONFISCATION OF TO ARMS FINISHES WORK

ZAGREB, Oct 7 (Hina) - The Croatian National Sabor's inquiry commission, in charge of establishing responsibility of state and political bodies of the Socialist Republic of Croatia for the confiscation of weaponry from the then Territorial Defence (TO) in the period until 30 May 1990, on Thursday unanimously adopted a report on its work. The report is to be forwarded to the Sabor's House of Representatives to discuss it and make conclusions, said the commission's head Bosiljko Misetic, after the end of the commission's closed session on Thursday. Misetic declined to give details from the report before a parliamentary discussion. This parliamentary inquiry commission was set up on March 26 this year by the Sabor's lower house, at an initiative of the Croatian Party of Rights (HSP). Its task was to establish who made a decision on seizure of the arms from the Territorial Defence as well as how and who carried out that decision in Croatia and whether there were persons or legal entities that opposed this decision. In addition, the commission should also find out how much and what kind of weapons had been confiscated, who received that arms and how much Croatia lost due to that decision and its implementation. A dozen persons who used to be officials of some institutions and also members of the then Committee of the Total National Defence and Social self-protection (ONO i DSZ), gave their statements before the commission.
