ZADAR, Aug 30 (Hina) - Zadar police on Monday filed criminal charges
against the head of the Lovinac branch of the ruling Croatian Democratic Union
(HDZ) party, Damir Masic, under a suspicion that he issued a death threat
against Slobodna Dalmacija reporter Lada Kalmeta.Lika-Senj police interrogated the suspect and handed the case to their
colleagues from Zadar at their request.
According to Kalmeta, Masic told the reporter over the phone on Saturday
that he would "personally see to it that her child attends her funeral" and
that he would "break her back".
The threat followed an article in which Kalmeta wrote that Masic was one
of the members of the Lovinac Parish Committee which had decided a month ago
to raise a monument to Ustasha government minister and writer Mile Budak.
