    [04] MS. RENN ON BREACHING HUMAN RIGHTS IN CROATIA

    UN Special Reporter on Human Rights, Ms. Elisabeth Renn, after her recent visit to Croatia, stated that she is not pleased with the frequency of Serbs returning to Croatia. " It is too slow, and the ones that stayed and the ones that are coming back are still in danger. There are many robberies, bombings and it seems that the authorities are not too keen on defending the population there. Since, if the Serbs do not return to Krajina, it will significantly impede the return of Croats to the Danube basin", said Ms. Renn. She is also skeptical towards the official statements of the Croatian Authorities that until now the return of about 12.00 Serbian refugees is approved. " I can not accept these numbers, I am more inclined to believe that only a thousand or two have returned, since other international observers quote similar numbers". Ms. Elisabeth Renn said that she has asked for explanation from the Croatian Government several times, on the crimes over Serbian civilians after the Croats Army action, but, as she said, she did not get satisfactory answers.

OSCE Speaker Mr. David Folley stated that he is "worried that members of political organization are arrested" The dossiers of the arrested were not submitted to Tribunal in Le Hague. " The Tribunal must immediately receive these dossiers or the arrested men should be released now", said Folley. The Government in Sarajevo accused the Leader of the Moslems from Cazin, Mr. Fikret Abdic for war crimes and the supposed cooperation with the Bosnian Serbs. (Nasa borba, Oct. 15, 1996)

    [06] RUSSIAN SOLDIERS REFUSE TO BECOME MOSLEMS' HOSTAGES

    Following the last week's events, when armed Moslems in the village of Jusici, in Republic of Srpska, took 24 Russian soldiers and officers as hostages, the Russian Division of IFOR left their station at the separation line between the entities and positioned itself further into the territory of Republic of Srpska. As the anonymous IFOR officer stated to SRNA Agency, the dislocation of Russian soldiers to the village of Malesice was ordered by the Russian Division Commander, Colonel Sergey Generalov. The village of Jusisi, after the departure of Russian soldiers, is now uncontrolled, since the Republic of Srpska police is not allowed to patrol the village independently. The representatives of the International Police Forces in Jusici show no intention of respecting the earlier signed statement on supporting the laws of Republic of Srpska. As reported by SRNA, the Moslems, some of them carrying arms, are more frequently invading the village of Malesice, populated solely by Serbs, thus defying that their intention was to return to their homes.

    [07] ALBANIAN "GAMES" ON THE SUPPOSED POISONING OF CHILDREN IN TETOVO

    The recently invented "ethnic poisoning" of Albanian children in village schools in the Macedonian multinational municipality of Tetovo, officially denied by the Wiener Institute for Forensic Medicine experts, is getting international "treatment". Last night news are that today the team of toxicologists will arrive from USA, to carry out additional research of the "monstrous poisoning" that occured with Albanian children only. The arrival of American toxicologists, announced by Radio Tirana and upon insisting of the US Embassy in Skopje, aroused resentment in the Macedonian political public. It is concluded that behind the supposed poisonings are, in fact, the antagonist Albanian lobbyists, trying to destabilize Macedonia, similarly to the invented poisonings in the eighties in Kosmet.
