VUKOVAR, Jan 31 (Hina) - The national association of former inmates of Serb concentration camps on Tuesday pressed war crimes charges with the Vukovar County Prosecutor's Office against a group of former JNA commanders, including General Miroslav Stojanovski of Macedonia, and persons accused of crimes committed in the "Velepromet" company building in Vukovar.

The association's president, Danijel Rehak, told reporters today that the association had named all persons known to have taken part in the crimes, regardless of whether they had already been tried for them.

Charges were pressed against former JNA commanders Veselin Sljivancanin, Nebojsa Pavkovic, Mile Mrksic, Milan Stupar, Miroslav Stojanovski, Borce Karanfilov and other unidentified persons for crimes committed against POWs.

Rehak said that former inmates of Serb-run detention camps were outraged by the decision of the Vukovar County Prosecutor's Office to drop the prosecution of the current Macedonian Army Chief-of-Staff Miroslav Stojanovski.

County Prosecutor Bozidar Piljic said last Friday that his office had not found any elements that would justify the criminal prosecution of the Macedonian general, whom he said it could not link with accusations by the association of former inmates of Serb camps or media reports.

The association holds Stojanovski responsible on the basis of command responsibility for the disappearance of ten Croatian soldiers who in 1991 were arrested by members of a unit under Stojanovski's command.

The association also pressed charges against some 100 persons for war crimes committed in the "Velepromet" company building in Vukovar, where captured Croatian soldiers and civilians were detained after the fall of the town.

Citing unofficial data, Rehak said that some 700 of those people were held missing or dead.
