SERBIAN TELEVISION VIOLATES MEDIA ELECTION BLACKOUT

( Editorial: --> 0073 ) SARAJEVO, Sept 13 (Hina) - "Sloga", a coalition participating in Bosnia-Herzegovina's general elections has filed a complaint against the Serbian Television for violating the media election blackout during an interview with Vojislav Seselj, Serbian vice- premier, on Friday. The Media Experts Commission (MEC), working as part of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), has found grounds for the complaints and warned the Belgrade television that it must adhere to the rules and regulations for media transmitting in Bosnia-Herzegovina. OSCE Mission chief in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Robert Barry, has decided to proceed the case to the electoral appeals sub-commission which has the authority to undertake punitive measures. In the interview broadcast on Friday, Seselj lashed out at the incumbent president of the Bosnian Serb entity of Republika Srpska, Biljana Plavsic. (hina) lml 131047 MET sep 98
