BELGRADE, Serbia, Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Serbian Labor Minister Rasim Ljajic said investigators have presumptions on the whereabouts of wanted genocide suspect Ratko Mladic.
Ljajic, who used to part of the team searching for Mladic and fellow Hague suspect Goran Hadzic, said he "does not wish to fall into a trap by claiming that Mladic is or is not in Serbia, because the only truth is that the authorized bodies do not know where he actually is," Serbian broadcaster B92 reported Thursday.
Mladic is wanted on suspicion of war crimes and crimes against humanity in connection with his military service during the Siege of Sarajevo and the Srebrenica massacre in the early 1990s.
B92 said Ljajic also spoke about claims by Raffi Gregorian, deputy high international representative in Bosnia, that Mladic was hiding inside Serbia's borders.
"That statement has an exclusively political tone and the purpose of increasing the political pressure on Serbia," Ljajic said in response.
