SERBIAN WAR CRIMINAL PREDRAG KUJUNDZIC ARRESTED

SARAJEVO, Bosnia (October 11,2007) – Acting on a warrant issued by the Bosnian State Prosecutor's Office, agents of the Bosnian State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA) arrested Serbian war criminal Predrag Kujundzic early yesterday morning.

According to a statement issued by the Bosnian State Prosecutor's Office, Serbian war criminal Predrag Kujundzic, born on 30 January 1961, was arrested in the Doboj area. He is charged of committing war crimes against Bosnian and Croatian civilians in 1992 and 1993,during the Serbian aggression against Bosnia.

Serbian war criminal was handed over to the competent prosecutor in the War Crimes Chamber of the Bosnian State Court, who will examine him and decide on an eventual motion for a custody order.

Serbian war criminal Predrag Kujundzic's name is associated with the "Predini vukovi" ("Predo's Wolves") ,a genocidal paramilitary formation of the Serbians living in Bosnia. In the past few years Serbian war criminal Predrag Kujundzic has been included in the list of suspected supporters of ICTY fugitive Serbian war criminal Radovan Karadzic. For that reason, he has been banned from entering EU countries and the US since 2003.

In 2000 the Cantonal Prosecution in Zenica received approval from the ICTY to file an indictment against Serbian war criminal Predrag Kujundzic.

The "Predini vukovi" group is also cited in the ICTY indictment against Serbian war criminal Slobodan Milosevic. In the indictment, this genocidal Serbian paramilitary group was associated with war crimes committed in the Bosnian city of Doboj during the 1992-1995 Serbian aggression against Bosnia.
