KIDNAPPED SWISS NATIONALS STILL IN SERB PRISON

SARAJEVO, Apr 5 (Hina) - Two Swiss UNESCO workers were still in prison in Sarajevo's occupied suburb of Ilidza, the UN in Sarajevo said today. The Swiss, Simon Gerbe and Marija Vernl-Matic, were kidnapped Monday at a Serb checkpoint on a road connecting downtown Sarajevo with the airport. UNPROFOR officials have so far been unable to make any contact with the prisoners, but were told by the Serbs that the detainees were "feeling well". Gerbe and Matic were members of a UNESCO commission for support to independent media in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Ludwig Kraus of the German-Bosnian Friendship Society was also under arrest, facing charges of "collaboration" with the Government Bosnian army. Five workers of the "Pharmaciens Sans Frontieres," kidnapped a month ago, were charged with providing logistic support to the Bosnian army. (hina) mm as 051358 MET apr 95
