ORUCEVIC COMMENTS ON CHARGES AGAINST HIM

MOSTAR, Feb 22 (Hina) - Speaking of charges filed against him by the Mostar police, Deputy Mayor of Mostar, Safet Orucevic, said on Saturday that charges were not against him but against "the free, single and joint Mostar." "Those who have filed charges against me have lost the case in advance, as Dayton delivered a verdict on them, and The Hague remains only," the local eastern Mostar television quoted Orucevic as saying to the BH-press. In a statement, which the local television broadcast on Saturday evening, Orucevic said he would ask the international community to "impose special military and police measures for the area of Mostar, if the Mostar HDZ (Croatian Democratic Union) fails to implement fully the Sarajevo agreement on Mostar, reached on February 12." "Attacks against SFOR in Mostar as well as inefficiency of investigation proceedings of the attacks create a sense of chaos in the town and contribute to further destabilisation of the situation," Safet Orucevic said.
