PROGRESS MADE AT TALKS ON RETURN OF REFUGFEES TO JAJCE

SARAJEVO, Aug 14 (Hina) - Considerable progress was made at negotiations on the return of refugees to the Jajce area (central Bosnia), a UNHCR spokesman said in Sarajevo on Thursday. The spokesman, Kris Janowski, told a news conference that on Wednesday's meeting Croat and Moslem (Bosniak) representatives in bodies of the Central Bosnia Canton and Jajce municipal authorities had agreed on the return of a great number of refugees, including those who left their homes following incidents two weeks ago. The meeting was organised in Travnik by the UNHCR. All agreed on the return of refugees, expelled from their homes earlier this month, but the return would be on a larger scale and would include 474 families. They would begin coming back to villages in the surroundings of Jajce on Saturday when a hundred of them should return to Kruscica, Janowski said. When all of them came back, there would be about additional 1,000 residents in the Jajce area, he added. Janowski said that according to previous experience one should be cautious and see how agreement would be carried out. (hina) jn mš 141335 MET aug 97
