MAN SUSPECTED OF THREATENING SKARE-OZBOLT ARRESTED ( Editorial: --> 7018 )

( Editorial: --> 7018 ) VUKOVAR, Oct 30 (Hina) - A man suspected of threatening and disturbing the Croatian President's deputy chief-of-staff, Vesna Skare-Ozbolt, was arrested on Thursday and was being held in custody in Beli Manastir, the investigating judge of the Vukovar County Court said. On October 28, ten armed men intercepted a car carrying Vesna Skare- Ozbolt, her associates and a journalist, in downtown Vukovar, threatening and shouting insults at the passengers. The ten men were charged with threatening and intimidating Vesna Skare-Ozbolt. Three of them were arrested and then released as there were no grounds for keeping them in custody. One man was taken into custody on Thursday, while six are still at large. One of those six is the instigator of the incident, Milenko Cancarevic-Canco, believed to be the leader of Vukovar criminals. UNTAES spokesman Douglas Coffmann told UNTAES radio on Thursday that the Transitional Police Force had found and seized a considerable amount of arms in the suspects' houses.
