BIHAC, ZAGREB, March 10 (Hina) - The Bosnian Embassy in Zagreb this evening sent HINA a statement by the Bihac-based Bosnian army 5th Corps, saying that they "had no reliable information as yet" on the reported arrest of HVO (Croatian Defence Council) Maj. Gen. Vladimir Santic. According to the Bosnian Croat defence ministry, Santic was arrested in Bihac at 1.20 am yesterday by members of the Bosnian Moslem-led government army 502nd brigade. "A joint commission including representatives of the Bosnian army, Interior Ministry, HVO headquarters and the District Attorney's office has been set up to conduct an expedient investigation," the 5th Corps said. "So far, we have ascertained that the general's disappearance took place under unknown circumstances between the 8th and the 9th of March, most probably from the vicinity of the Sedra Hotel," the statement said.
