"They allegedly have some new indictments against me, accusing soldiers under my command of killing 10,000 Croatian soldiers", he said on RTS.
Sljivancanin was convicted by the Hague tribunal to 10 years for his involvement in the atrocities which the then JNA and Serb rebels committed in the eastern Croatian town of Vukovar in November 1991.
He said that he had no remorse because as a soldier of a legal army of his country he was deployed to Vukovar "to unblock army barracks that were attacked, to locate and liberate detained soldiers and to disarm paramilitary forces", referring to Croatian defending troops.
He justified his greetings to recently acquitted Croatian generals Ante Gotovina and Mladen Markac because when he was released from the Hague prison, they farewelled him and congratulated him on his release, adding that they had "proper" relations in the prison.
The ex-JNA colonel was released from prison after serving two thirds of the sentence imposed on him by the international Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY).
