Bosnia - Television stations back Plavsic

(25 Aug 1997) T/I: 10:00:30


The television station in Banja Luka which is backing embattled Bosnian Serb President Biljana Plavsic went back on air on Sunday night (24/8) after a strike lasting more than two days.
The station's main offices are in Pale, the Serb region's capital, but technicians at the Banja Luka station said on Friday (22/8) they would refuse to transmit anti-Plavsic and anti-NATO "propaganda" broadcasts being put out by hardliners in Pale.
