TRAVNIK CATHOLICS UNSETTLED BY BOMBING THREATS

SARAJEVO, Feb 28 (Hina) - An unknown person on Thursday night threatened with mining the Catholic church in Travnik, central Bosnia, the town's parish priest's office said on Friday. According to information by Sarajevan Catholic Press Agency, the local police, after learning about the threat, undertook the necessary protection measures and guarded the church. The threat scared and unsettled Catholics and their priests, the press agency said, adding that aide to Sarajevan bishop, Monsignor Pero Sudar, today received Federal Interior Minister Mehmed Zilic and his deputy Jozo Leutar. On the occasion of the meeting, the Bosnian Federation's Interior Ministry issued a statement, which said the talks focused on the 26 February mining of a Catholic church in Donji Vakuf. As earlier attacks on Catholic churches, this one was aimed at overthrowing the Federation of Bosnia- Herzegovina, but also at preventing the Pope's visit to Sarajevo, the statement said.
