MOSTAR, 20 Jan (Hina) - The International Police Task Force (IPTF)
in Mostar announced on Tuesday that three Bosniak (Moslem) women
had been attacked in Stolac last weekend, suffering light
injuries.
The news of Saturday's attacks was also confirmed by police in the
Croat-controlled town in southern Bosnia-Herzegovina.
IPTF Mostar spokeswoman Kelly Moore said two men, one armed with a
pistol, attacked two Bosniak women, who had arrived in an announced
visit. The women were told to leave and never return, Moore said.
A second incident on Saturday occurred when, according to Moore,
three unknown men attacked a Bosniak woman who was visiting a
friend.
According to the IPTF's Stolac commander Steven Smith, the three
Bosniak women were lightly injured, receiving bruises to the head.
One of the women received a light fracture to the face and sought
medical help in Mostar hospital, Smith said.
Neill Wright, head of the UN High Commission for Refugees in
southern Bosnia-Herzegovina, said he hoped Stolac police would
conduct a professional investigation.
The Stolac police headquarters on Tuesday confirmed Saturday's
incidents.
