THE HAGUE, Dec 16 (Hina) - Chief prosecutor at The Hague-based
International Criminal Tribunal for Former Yugoslavia (ICTY)
Louise Arbour on Wednesday said she did not see on what Croatian

Croatian generals.
Arbour said she did not know in what context the statement had been
made, but assessed its tone as rather belligerent and aggressive.
With regard to indications that the ICTY was investigating several
military officers, Arbour said Croatian authorities should not
possess information on which to base such statements.
She assessed as completely unacceptable to speculate about
investigations in a way which was detrimental to the tribunal's
work.
