SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina—Pulling the pin on one of the most explosive issues in the Bosnian war, Bosnia's government announced yesterday that it would press for war-crimes indictments for two top Serb officers arrested after they made a wrong turn near Sarajevo.
The Associated Press
Angry Bosnian Serb leaders immediately broke off contacts with the Muslim-led government. Even NATO denounced the arrests of the officers, whom Bosnia accused of slaughtering civilians.
"The city of Sarajevo has, sadly, become the Beirut of Europe and has disqualified itself as a possible joint Serb, Muslim and Croat capital," Serb leaders said in a statement. Serb officials said they no longer would travel to areas of Sarajevo held by the Bosnian government.
Bosnia seeks war-crime trial
Bosnia claimed Gen. Djordje Djukic and Col. Aleksa Krsmanovic bear responsibility for mass killings of civilians around Sarajevo.
The peace accord doesn't address what might happen if Bosnia decided to charge the two with war crimes in conjunction with its own laws.
The Muslim-led Bosnian government disclosed Monday that it had detained eight Serbs in the past three weeks and that it was holding five on suspicion of war crimes.
Brig. Andrew Cumming, a spokesman for the NATO force, described the arrests as provocative and inflammatory, noting that neither Serb officer had been indicted by the international tribunal investigating war crimes in the former Yugoslavia.
Djukic, Krsmanovic and their driver were arrested Jan. 30 after taking a wrong turn onto government territory near Sarajevo, Cummings said.
The driver and two other Serbs being questioned as witnesses soon will be freed, said Bakir Alisphak, the chief of Bosnia's security service.
The pursuit of war criminals is one of the touchest issues in bringing peace to the former Yugoslavia. The Dayton peace accord requires all sides to cooperate in bringing war criminals to justice, but it appears to speak mainly of those labeled as
Djukic, in his seventies, is the highest-ranking Serb detained by the government. He was a logistics specialist and close aide to Bosnian Serb military commander Gen. Ratko Mladic during the war.
The other three suspects in custody were believed to have killed civilians in eastern Bosnia and were arrested recently in a civilian car carrying rifles, hand grenades and ammunition, Bosnian officials said.
"It would be a pity if this encouraged a retaliatory reaction," Cuming said. "Everything is very fragile."
The Bosnian government has asked the U.N. tribunal to examine evidence against the five and has promised to release them if the tribunal does not indict them.
Serb leaders protested that the arrests violated the peace accord, which stipulates that those who stray into hostile territory should be turned back rather than arrested.

GOP candidates battle in bayou
BATON ROUGE, La. — Phil Gramm and Pat Buchanan battled for conservative support yesterday as Louisiana Republicans cast the first votes of the 1996 presidential race.
The first 21 delegates to the Republican National Convention were at stake, but the balloting was boycotted

Phil Gramm
by most of the GOP field, including Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, publishing heir Steve Forbes and former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander.
They stayed away to assuage state GOP leaders and activists in Iowa, which holds its presidential preference caucuses next Monday and traditionally has gone first in the nominating chase.
Gramm, a Texas senator, was heavily favored because of deep support in the state GOP establishment. His supporters included state party leaders who designed the event, and Buchanan complained to the end that the process was tilted in Gramm's favor.

Foster complained the event was poorly organized but nonetheless predicted it would frame the race for Iowa and beyond.
"We could have Louisiana decide who the real challenger to Bob Dole is going to be," he said.
The boycotting candidates begged to differ. Alexander, campaigning in Iowa, told reporters he had no regrets about staying away.
Using secret ballots, not a traditional caucus setting, voters were electing three delegates and three alternates from each of the state's seven congressional districts.

local time. In one last tweak at Iowa Republicans, who tried unsuccessfully to derail the Louisiana event, polls opened a half-hour earlier in tiny Iowa, La.
Nine more national convention delegates will be allocated based on the March 12 Super Tuesday primary, when Dole, Forbes, Alexander and others plan to be on the ballot. It takes nearly 1,000 delegates to clinch the nomination.
Only registered Republicans were allowed to vote yesterday.
"The presidential race begins next Monday in Iowa," he said. "Louisiana is a media sideshow arranged to help the campaigns of two sagging candidates—Mr. Gramm and Mr. Buchanan."
Pat Buchanan
traveling to Louisiana. Gramm said he would consider 11 delegates a victory, trying to lower expectations from earlier predictions he would get all or most of the 21 delegates.
Although the event was dubbed a caucus, it amounted to a mini-primary.
Buchanan hoped to deny Gramm's bid for momentum heading into Iowa and New Hampshire, where they are competing for many of the same conservative voters.
my step, I'll have a little broader smile on my face if we win than if we lose."
The state GOP set up 42 voting sites in the state, and polls were open from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Buchanan spent the entire day in the state, capping a spirited effort in which he campaigned often and invested in television advertising.
"Any delegate we get away from Phil Grann is a victory," Buchanan said.
