The Court of BiH ruled one-month detention last Friday for Čaušević and eight other persons, while subjecting twenty other suspects to a travel ban outside of their home town and meeting certain other people. The latter are Alija Mašić, Almir Kadić, Dražan Kožul, Sveto Miljić, Ljubomir Vlajinić, Dragan Tomić, Dejan Pavić, Nermin Hrusti, Aleksandar Petrović, Hajrudin Muminović, Faruk Šušnjara, Danijel Stojčić, Boro Marjanović, Radan Kuzmanović, Mišo Novković, Veseljk Starčević, Edvina Ađulović, Dejan Nožica, Mirko Ivić and Josip Kovačević.
The court of BiH refused the prosecutors’ motion for house arrest of the suspects. The restrictions will not be lifted until the Court decides otherwise, with their review scheduled for every two months. In case the suspects have violated the terms of restrictions they will be taken to custody.
