The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) on Thursday decided to declassify the Clarification of Indictment against generals Ante Gotovina, Ivan Cermak and Mladen Markac, which paved the way for the publication of the names of seven men who were mentioned in the clarification as having been engaged in the "joint criminal enterprise".
Those seven men are Mirko Norac, Rahim Ademi, Miljenko Crnjac, Mate Lausic, Ivan Jarnjak, Markica Rebic and Jure Radic.
Slokovic told Hina on the phone on Thursday that this document could be treated as an annex to the indictment but only as a clarification.
Therefore it cannot produce any legal effects on those named in it, and there will be no investigation against them. The Hague tribunal will not launch proceedings against them, although Croatia might do it but the Hague tribunal cannot order such a move, Slokovic said.
She added that the seven men could be summonsed to appear before the ICTY either as prosecution witnesses or defence witnesses in the trial against the three generals.
The motion to lift the confidentiality of the Prosecution's Clarification of Indictment was first submitted by the defence team of General Ante Gotovina on 22 May. Two days later, lawyers for General Mladen Markac asked the same.
