SFOR ARRIVED IMMEDIATELY AT PLANE CRASH SITE


National.

Several vehicles of SFOR arrived at the plane crash site 20 minutes after the crash of the plane carrying Macedonian president Boris Trajkovski.

Almost three years after the tragic accident, the local residents of Rotimlje, a village near the crash site, told the Macedonian media that SFOR teams arrived at the plane crash site shortly after the crash. The government's King Air jet, carrying the then president Boris Trajkovski and his entourage, went down minutes before landing at Mostar's airport.

Rotimlje residents told the Macedonian printed and electronic media that the plane was located shortly after it went down, not 26 hours later as the official report claims.

"The road to crash site runs through the village. Two SFOR jeeps stayed at the main road and other two jeeps climbed to the hill around 9 pm. They returned shortly afterwards, in 20 minutes. We didn't know what had happened up there. We learnt the next morning that a plane had crashed," local resident Ahmet Pehlic said.

Macedonian President Branko Crvenkovski will visit Mostar on Saturday, but his trip has nothing to do with the investigation. He will place a wreath at the statue of the plane crash victims near Rotimlje.

MD: As we published earlier this week, Macedonia is going to reopen the investigation on what happened back in 2004 , when Macedonian president Boris Trajkovski died in a plane crash.
