Dinamo Zagreb to collect money for war crimes suspect
AFP
March 24, 2006
ZAGREB (AFP) - Croatian first division side Dinamo Zagreb said they would donate the money earned during their last match in the country's championship to the defence of a former general in custody at the UN war crimes court in The Hague.
„The club's management has decided to donate the money to be collected from the last match's tickets to the foundation” for the defence of Croatians charged by the UN tribunal, Dinamo Zagreb's spokesman Adolf Kozul told AFP.
The match, during which Dinamo Zagreb is to host their long-standing rivals Hajduk Split, is due to be played on May 13.
The club expects to sell some 35,000 tickets and thus collect some 150,000 euros (180,000 dollars).
The foundation was created in February with the aim to collect money to finance the defence of Croatians charged by the UN court, notably former general Ante Gotovina.
Gotovina was detained in December in Spain after being on the run for more than four years.
The UN court charged him with war crimes against ethnic Serbs during the 1991-95 Serbo-Croatian war.
He is seen as a national hero by many in Croatia.
Croatia's proclamation of independence from the former Yugoslavia in 1991 sparked the war with Belgrade-backed rebel Serbs who opposed the move.
