(Letter to EU Commission sent on 05. 11. 2007.)
Dears,
My name is Peratovic, Zeljko Peratovic
And, I am croatian journalist and bloger who was detained on suspicion of disclosing state secrets on my internet blog, in a move demanded by both the head of the secret service and the office of the public prosecutor.
Let me you that I report my side of story!
For a long time the problems I’ve been having I’m connecting with President Stjepan Mesic, chief of SOA Tomislav Karamarko and Main state attorney, Mladen Bajic.
I criticized President Mesic in 2003 that he was helping Ante Gotovina and Hrvoje Petrac and because of that I was under attack of his spies Zeljko Bagic and Franjo Turek, about what also CPJ was informing.
The same year I got familiar with the case of retired lawyer Ana Jendris-Jelisic who gave me an interview after visiting President Mesic, in which she accused President of Croatia that he was protecting his friends Zarko Pavlina and Marijan Ceraj, and who put her in mental institution, and then in custody so that they could rob her. The interview I made for Vjesnik, but the editorial office didn’t publish it, without explanation. (Dowload pdfs of this cases from TOMULIC-Lettre fax à délégation de la Commission UE-décembre 2006.pdf , JENDRIS-JELESIC-Lettre fax au CRIF-décembre 2006.pdf-2.pdf - french only), and video from 45 lines - croatian only)
When in 2004 President Stjepan Mesic used a case of Helena Puljiz to depose at that time chief of POA, Josko Podbevsek, who by the order of Prime Minister Sanader was researching Mesic’s connection with Hrvoje Petrac (mobbster convicted for kidnapping of Vladimir Zagorac’s child) and enforced Prime Minister Sanader to put on the head of POA Tomislav Karamarko. Even when such possibility was in discussion I published a text in Vjesnik, partly censored, in which I said that Karamarko wouldn’t get personnal resolution for chief of spies. Karamarko immediatelly intervened at that time chief editor of Vjesnik to limit my writing which she told me herself.

Vesna Levar, widow of deceased Milan, asked from all authorised institutions in the country, even in President’s Office, to Dragan Novosel be punished because of obstruction of the investigation of her husband’s murder, but all institutions were satisfied with the statement of Novosel’s chief Mladen Bajic that DORH doesn’t obstruct the investigation and that they didn’t revealed any details, even not the identity of the witness in the investigation.
With all these details of obstruction of the investigation I informed Amnesty International in London which is in charge of Balkans.
(xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
So far nobody offered a protection or support releated to that.
When a part of testimony of Fatima Skula (in which she talks about the role of recent vice president of Parliament and a member of presidency of HDZ, Darko Milinovic) appeared on the Internet a part of, I also commented on my blog. It is well known that I am the most instructed journalist in war crimes in Lika, and Karamarko, Bajic, Mesic and Sanader knew that I had Skula’s entire testimonies and gave the copies to State attorney’s office in Gospic, and immediately started a chase on me that I was the author of deeds on YouTube.
So the crew of HTV’s show Brisani prostor (director Goran Milic, former director of Yutel and during socialism reporter of Yugoslav radio television from the USA) started to look after those cassettes. I was called by Milic’s journalist, Srebrenka Mijatovic-Herold and told me that the autor of the recordings Marko Erceg said that I got the tapes and that I should give them to Brisani prostor show. I answered that I didn’t have the tapes, but I made a copy from Erceg and gave him back the original and that I know for certain that copies were in DORH in Gospic. Then the journalist concluded that I gave the records to State attorney’s office and she was going to say that in the show. I told her that I didn’t said that in that way. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She called me the next day and said that she talked to the director Goran Milic and that he offered a fee if I give a statement for his show about authenticity of Skula’s statements considering that I had an interview with her in 1999 for Globus. I accepted that. Nevertheless, the journalist didn’t call me any more, and from Marko Erceg and Dragutin Franciskovic, persons who participated in recording of Skula’s testimony, I found out that the journalist of HTV told them that I was the author of the video on Internet and surely those cassettes I was selling around for money, that she doesn’t disapprove war crimes over Serbs in Lika, and she knows the Tihomir Oreskovic’s family . Marko Erceg told me that the journalist visited him and he gave her to copy his originals. That’s why I expected to be attacked in Brisani prostor show as a collaborator of foreign secret services who distributes false statements about war crimes.
However, when the police crashed into my apartment and showed me the Letter for search, they didn’t mention those cassettes, although they picked them up in the end and didn’t give it back to me yet. They said they are interested in documents of secret services with State secret sign on it (see police_report_peratovic18.pdf)
During the very search and interrogation it was visible that two policemen out of eight, all from department for organised crime and terrorism who participated in treatment over me, were in constant conntact from somebody in SOA or State attorney’s office, so even after three hours they found all three documents they were formally interested in, and even the rest of the policemen wanted all the time to end the search, those two were getting over a phone instructions to continue.
They took also all my documentations about war crimes in Lora, Miljevci, Gospic, Medak Pocket, political murders during Tudjman’s time , but also during the comunism (Perkovic’s modus operandi).
On most of those documents there were no signs of any secrecy. (police_report_peratovic18.pdf)
Two weeks previously I offered to redaction of xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx an interview with Josip Majerski, the witness of Bavarian prosecution which deal with murders of Yugoslav secret police on the land of Germany in 70’s and 80’s. Redactions refused the offer and I, for my blog with Majerski, who gave his testimony these days in Muenchen, recorded the interview on DV camera and on Canon camera. Police confiscated also those cameras with interviews with that witness. Majerski especially for participation in state terrorist activities of Yugoslav secret police charged Josip Perkovic, father of consultant of President Stjepan Mesic for national security, Sasa Perkovic, and Budimir Loncar, former chief of Yugoslav CIA (SID) last Minister of foreign affairs of Yugoslavia and present special consultant of President Mesic for foreign affair who organised meeting for President of Croatia and President of Iran.
I got the information earlier that agents of SOA were at Josip Boljkovac’s, former Yugoslav secret policeman and first Croatian Minister of police and asked how one anonymous letter in which was mentioned his name got on my blog. Later the policemen in crime processing asked me if I knew Boljkovac and Dragutin Franciskovic, a person with whom I was at Boljkovac’s this summer. Considering that some investigations are going on about comunist after war crimes, where Boljkovac’s name is mentioned, Boljkovac is probably terified and he thinks President Mesic will protect him form possible penal procedure, so to agents of SOA, by my information, he talked against me and Dragutin Franciskovic, that is most likely that Franciskovic gave me that anonymous letter (see in PDF list of confiscated things – Case SOA Vice Vukojevic and on blog under link)
Two years ago I visited Boljkovac together with deceased Vjenceslav Bill. After Bill suddenlly stopped his friendship with me, I heard that he was slandering me to different peolpe that I was recording Boljkovac in secrecy, that I took from Marko Erceg cassettes with Fatima Skula’s testimony and that I wouldn’t give it back to him etc. I concluded that Bill was with something blackmailed by Tomislav Karamarko and that he was thrown in my surrounding as an agent provocateur. Soon Bill started to threaten me about which I had to inform the police, and State attorney’s office rejected my notification this year, a few months after Bill died.
It is interesting that Josip Boljkovac himself several times said that he was suspicious about Bill’s sudden death, that was, that he believed that he was murdered ba Croatian secret service in order to get rid of him as an unpleasant witness. That Boljkovac repeated also to Mr Drago Franciskovic.
While he was, or he was acting, that he was in good relations with me, deceased Vjenceslav Bill left me some of his written and audio testimonies about war crimes in Osijek for which besides Branimir Glavas he charged also war investigative judge in Osijek, Radoslav Arambasic, a lawyer engaged by recent chief of Osijek’s police Vladimir Faber ( a best man of chief of SOA, Tomislav Karamarko) to deputize main witness Gordana Getos - Magdic against Branimir Glavas in «selotejp» case who on Arambasic’s persuasion confessed that the orders for murders which she transferred to murderers was given by Branimir Glavas. It is not in question was Glavas command orderer of those murderes but was also involved in that present lawyer Arambasic about what in written and audio form testimonied to me deceased Bill, and those materials were confiscated to me.
I revealed on my blog some more manipulations with which were connected President Mesic, Main state attorney Bajic, chief of SOA, Tomislav Karamarko and his men, and one of the sources for those discoveries was also Dxxxxx Pxxxxxxx, a person whose father as a Serb, Director of Sale in rafinery of oil in Sisak, was killed by Croatian forces. She was at one time in good relations with the circle around general Gotovina, so she told me her cognitions about xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In 2006 I had a cup of coffee with Mrs Pxxxxxxx and Faber and saw on my own eyes that they are involved in affair. After that Tomislav Karamarko pressed Mrs Pxxxxxxx to make a press on me so she transferred his messages to me that he knew that grandfather of my wife (on father’s side
