TWO BRITISH REPORTERS REPORTED MISSING

( Editorial: --> 5324 ) MOSTAR, Feb 28 (Hina) - An east Mostar radio station on Saturday reported that two British reporters went missing in Medjugorje Friday night, citing two officials of a British production company the two reporters work for. The two reporters, Michael Grimes and Jeffrey Pickett, went missing while on an investigative mission on where western aid for the children of Bosnia-Herzegovina had ended up, said the company officials, Alexander Maurice and Philip Kronzer. We have evidence that the aid ended up for another aim - ethnic cleansing, Maurice said. The car carrying the two reporters was found in Citluk (southern Bosnia) with broken windows and the two men's documentation still inside, Maurice and Kronzer told the east Mostar radio, adding that the two reporters had not been seen since Friday night. The British Embassy in Sarajevo has been informed about the case. The International Police Task Force (IPTF) in Mostar said they had no official information about the incident. The police in Citluk said that a vehicle with Split (Croatia) registration plates had been found in the town on Saturday morning, but they had no other information about the case, except that the car windows had been broken.
