The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ), the Vienna-based South East Europe Media Organisation (SEEMO), an affiliate of the International Press Institute (IPI) and the Croatian Journalists’ Association (HND) express their joint concern over the fact that three years after the brutal beating of the Croatian journalist, Dusan Miljus, the police have been unable to find the perpetrators or those who ordered the attack.
In addition, the circumstances surrounding the 2008 assassination of high-profile Croatian journalist and editor of the weekly Nacional, Ivo Pukanic, have not been completely clarified. While those who planted the bomb which killed Pukanic and Niko Franjic, marketing manager of Nacional, were indicted, the masterminds behind their assassination were never found.
