    The committee's chairman, Josip Perisa, who held a news conference after a committee session in Zagreb on Monday, also refuted an article run in Jutarnji list according to which HVIDRA chief Josip Djakic had told the newspaper that Gen Ante Gotovina should prove his innocence before the Hague tribunal. According to Perisa, Djakic sent a denial of that article to Monday's issue of Slobodna Dalmacija and he will hold a news conference tomorrow to present his position on the entire matter. The duty of HVIDRA is to protect all of its members, including Gen Gotovina. HVIDRA does not support the Croatian government in a bid to locate and arrest the general and transfer him to The Hague, Perisa said.
