ZAGREB, THE HAGUE, Aug 18 (Hina) - Croatian officials were on
Monday unable to confirm a Reuter news item saying that one
Bosnian Croat accused of war crimes was detained in Zagreb.
Quoting a statement by an unnamed Zagreb County Court
judge, the British news agency reported on Monday that Pero
Skopljak, a Bosnian Croat accused of war crimes, was detained in
Zagreb and would probably be turned over to The Hague-based
International War Crimes Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia
(ICTY) on Tuesday.
On Monday Hina was unable to get a confirmation on the
accuracy of the claims from official representatives of Croatian
judicial bodies.
ICTY spokesman Christian Chartier told news agency AFP in
The Hague that the tribunal had spoken with its representatives
in Zagreb in relation to Reuter's report, but could not get a
confirmation neither on the arrest nor on a possible turnover of
the accused to ICTY.
