RETURN OF BOTH SERBS AND CROATS WILL BE OUR FINAL VICTORY - VALENT

VALENT $ IC SAYS PAKRAC, May 5 (Hina) - Leaving Okucani, a Croatian government delegation, headed by Prime Minister Nikica Valentic, went to Jasenovac, where they visited the Roman Catholic church, damaged during the Serbian aggression of 1991, and the memorial site of the World War 2 concentration camp. After Jasenovac, the delegation arrived in Pakrac visiting the Gabrinica neighbourhood and the village of Japaga, liberated yesterday. "Today we can once more guarantee that the rule of law will be established here," the Prime Minister said in front of the newly opened police precinct in Japaga. "We must realize that much fear and nervousness still exist here. It's human," Valentic said, stressing that most of former Serb militiamen subjected to interrogation, were to return to their homes today, while only suspects of war crimes and other criminal abuses would undergo further investigation. "I personally believe this example will show that Serbs in Croatia have good reasons to trust the Croatian government," Valentic said. Asked when Croat refugees, expelled 1991, would return to their homes. Valentic said it would take place as soon as possible. "When they both (Serbs and Croats) return, it will be our final victory," Valentic said, appealing for patience. Commenting on allegations that Croatian police units had violated international conventions, Interior Minister Ivan Jarnjak said he had nothing to add to the plain fact that all reporters could come to a hitherto occupied area and to see for themselves that not one incident had occurred. Asked what was currently happening to Serb former leaders, Jarnjak said that some of them were returned to their communities in order to convince people that they would be completely safe - until they decide on whether to stay in Croatia or to leave. Asked how many rebels were still offering resistance, Jarnjak said that the action should be considered as finished. (Hina) jn bk 052033 MET may 95
