The trial of four of the men accused of the murder of Croatian journalist Ivo Pukanic opens today in Zagreb.

Indictments have been issued against eight persons from Croatia and Serbia and prosecutors from the two countries have been coordinating on the case. According to the charges, the indictees killed Pukanic, the editor of Nacional magazine, in return for a payment of "at least €1.5 million".

One of the indictees, Bojan Guduric, surrendered to Bosnian authorities on February 2, while other suspects are being held in detention in Serbia and Bosnia.

Pukanic, 47, was known for his investigations into corruption and organised crime. He was killed in October 2008 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.
