This, however, does not mean that detention set for Glavas would be extended, Posavec told Hina, adding that Glavas was to remain in custody until 26 November after which the court would decide whether to extend his detention or not.
Glavas's attorney Ante Madunic said he would appeal, adding that he feared that the court would reject his appeal.
The attorney said that even before he learned that detention against him had been sent on yet another ground, Glavas told the investigating judge that he was not on a hunger strike just because of the rigged investigation in Osijek, but also because of the rigged investigation in Zagreb.
By saying this, Glavas expressed dissatisfaction with the prosecutor's request that 16 new witnesses be heard, mostly war veterans from Osijek, who are expected to testify about their role in 1991, Madunic said.
The attorney said the prosecution asked for new witnesses to be heard only to keep Glavas in custody for as long as possible, although he has already been on a hunger strike for 19 days.
At today's hearing Judge Posavec heard four witnesses. According to unofficial information, none of the witnesses that took the stand today incriminated Glavas.
Glavas is suspected of involvement in the murders of Serb civilians in the eastern city of Osijek in late 1991.
