ZAGREB, May 29 (Hina) - Fifty five Croats from the villages of Sargovac and Prijecani in the Banja Luka region were taken away in unknown direction in a bus bearing Okucani (western Slavonia) register plates. Half of the passengers were children, a statement from the Banja Luka Bishop's office said. The statement added that the Croats were not allowed to take anything with them, not even their personal papers. A group of armed Serbs raped several Croat girls on Saturday. The girls were under age. The perpetrators were bearing insignia of the so-called Krajina police, and were acting according to the command of Banja Luka Executive Council president Rajko Kasagic. According to the statement Serbs were moving into the houses of expelled Banja Luka Croats. (hina) mm rm 291534 MET may 95
