The three men were suspected of involvement in the disappearance of
Serb Dusan Komosar from Sisak who, according to his wife Milja, was
abducted from his Sisak apartment on October 19, 1991 and has been
missing since.
The investigation of the three suspects has been discontinued at the
motion of the County Prosecutor's Office in Sisak, which decided not
to prosecute the three men because evidence did not show that they
committed the crime they were charged with.
The three Croatian soldiers were arrested on June 30 last year. The
investigation was launched on July 2. They were released from
detention on August 28. During the investigation they defended
themselves by remaining silent.
After the three men were apprehended Homeland War associations from
Sisak-Moslavina County sent a note of protest to the judicial bodies
which launched the investigation.
