SARAJEVO, Oct 22 (Hina) - Members of the International Police Task
Force discovered large quantities of non-permitted weaponry while
searching local police stations in Brcko, a Serb-controlled town in
north-eastern Bosnia-Herzegovina. The UN mission spokesman in
Sarajevo Liam McDowall said on Wednesday that police in Brcko tried
to hide 16 automatic rifles, about 20 antipersonnel and armour-
piercing mines, and 82mm-mortars.
The IPTF discovered the hidden weaponry on Tuesday in a police
station already searched a month ago. The weaponry was seized by
members of the NATO-led Stabilization Force and will be destroyed.
According to McDowall, a 45-year-old Bosniak (Muslim) man was
killed by an anti-tank mine which exploded yesterday in the
vicinity of the former inter-entity boundary line near the village
of Svjetleca, near Doboj in the Bosnian Serb entity.
Available information shows there were no mine-fields in that area,
McDowall said, adding the IPTF will closely follow the
investigation that the Doboj police will make into the incident.
