Attorney Nada Dalipagic told Hina by telephone the prosecution's claims that the two could hide evidence were unfounded because the prosecution had already confiscated all relevant materials and heard witnesses.
The Simunovics were released after spending 48 hours in custody in Sarajevo.
Their being interviewed by police and the collecting of financial documents in the "Lijanovic" company in Mostar and Siroki Brijeg two days ago are connected with the trial in the Lijanovic-Covic case, which started in Sarajevo today and was adjourned until September 1.
Zdenka Simunovic was initially one of the nine suspects in the case. In the meantime, charges against her have been dropped, while charges against the four Lijanovic brothers, the incumbent leader of the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) of Bosnia-Herzegovina, Dragan Covic, Constitutional Court president Mate Tadic, and law professor Zdravko Lucic have been confirmed. They are charged with corruption and conspiracy to evade paying customs duties.
