HAGUE TRIBUAL INVESTIGATORS VISIT SOUTHERN CROATIA

( Editorial: --> 9671 ) DUBROVNIK, July 24 (Hina) - Two investigators of the International War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague on Friday visited Dubrovnik, southern Croatia, for unofficial talks about events in the Dubrovnik area during the Serbian-Montenegrin aggression on Croatia in 1991-1992. After the talks, Dubrovnik Mayor Vid Bogdanovic said investigators Kevin Curtis and Clint Williamson were most interested in the war events in the Dubrovnik area in late 1991 and in 1992. The talks are an introduction into further research and the possibility of initiating court proceedings against those who took part in the aggression on southern Croatia, said Bogdanovic. The investigators also visited the Croatian Television studio in Dubrovnik to view film material from the time of the Serbian- Montenegrin aggression. Williamson confirmed the arrival to Dubrovnik was connected to the beginning of an investigation into the events in the Dubrovnik area in late 1991 and in 1992. He assessed the talks held so far as very useful. (hina) ha jn 241655 MET jul 98
