Former Bosnian Serb police chief on hunger strike
Sep 15, 2010
A former Bosnian Serb police chief who collapsed during a hunger strike over losing his job says he will not give up until he dies or his case is reconsidered.
Accusing him of helping war crimes suspects evade justice, Bosnia’s international administrator fired Dragomir Andan and seized his travel documents in 2007.
There was no formal trial and Andan chose to go on hunger strike 16 days ago. He collapsed Wednesday and a hospital said he was admitted to its emergency room where he was given intravenous fluids before being discharged.
He told The Associated Press he will continue until he dies or he has a chance to prove his innocence. The administrator’s office has said the circumstances regarding Andan’s dismissal have not changed.
