Radovan Karadzic, Sarajevo is not your city, and you have no right to say that it is, just as you do not have the right to say in public, even if it’s in court, that someone has dug up bones around Bosnia and brought them to Srebrenica to make a fake graveyard. This is insulting.
Indictment Issued in Pukanic Case
Belgrade | 27 October 2009 | Bojana Barlovac
Ivo Pukanic
“The prosecution believes that the evidence gathered during the seven month investigation has confirmed the suspicion that Jocic, Milovanovic and Kuzmanovic were working within an international organised crime group, made up of Serbian, Croatian, and Bosnian citizens, who organised and committed the crime in question,” a Special Prosecution statement read.
According to the charges, the indictees killed Pukanic in return for a payment of "at least €1.5 million".
Pukanic, 47, was known for promoting investigations into corruption and organised crime. He was killed last October when an explosive device detonated underneath his car outside his newspaper’s offices in Zagreb. His marketing manager, Niko Franic, was also killed in the blast.
Meanwhile, the Office for the Suppression of Organised Crime and Corruption in Croatia has filed an indictment against other alleged members of the international criminal group: Robert and Luka Matanic, Amir Mafalanija, Bojana Guduric and Slobodan Djurovic.
Radisavljevic said in a statement that the Serbian and Croatian prosecution investigations were well coordinated.
"With these simultaneous indictments in Serbia and Croatia, we don’t want to show only the [...] coordination but also the decisiveness of the two countries prosecutions in prosecuting the most serious organised crimes. Given the results of cooperation achieved in this case, I am sure it will be continued in other cases,” he said.
