ZAGREB, April 1 (Hina) - The Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) has responded to Croatia's application to appear as amicus curiae (friend of the court) in the "Prlic and others" case and called on the Appeals Chamber to deny the application because a Croatian brief would not "assist the Chamber in its determination of the appeal" and because the three most senior Croatian officials mentioned in the Croatian application were never indicted by the ICTY.
