The Osijek County Prosecutor's Office said in a statement on Tuesday that, based on facts established and information collected so far, there were no grounds to suspect that Deputy Parliament Speaker Vladimir Seks was criminally responsible for the killing of Serb civilians in eastern Slavonia in 1991.
The office interviewed 13 persons about the events in question following a motion by the Youth Initiative for Human Rights and in the wake of an Amnesty International report mentioning Seks as possibly responsible for the killing of Serb civilians in eastern Slavonia in 1991, the statement said.
Also examined were files from county prosecutor's offices in Vukovar, Osijek and Zagreb as well as the Military Prosecutor's Office in Osijek, where investigations were conducted or are under way to establish the circumstances under which those and all other civilians were killed and to find the perpetrators and those who possibly ordered the killings, the statement said.
