Australian Federal Court dismisses Captain Dragan's appeal

Autor: mses
ZAGREB, Sept 30 (Hina) - The Federal Court of Australia on Friday dismissed an appeal which war crimes suspect Dragan Vasiljkovic, also known as Captain Dragan, lodged in an attempt to prevent his extradition to Croatia where he is wanted for war crimes, the Australian media reported on Friday.

The Federal Court upheld a judgement made last November.

There were no obvious grounds to show that the previous judgement was erroneous, according to the Federal Court's latest ruling quoted by the media.

Captain Dragan is an Australian citizen who was arrested in Australia in January 2006 on a warrant issued by Croatia for his extradition.

Since then, this leader of former Serb paramilitary forces in Croatia has been trying by all legal means to deter his transfer to Croatia where he is charged with war crimes against civilians and prisoners of war.

Captain Dragan can appeal the latest ruling within 28 days.
