Croatian journalist fined for contempt

A Croatian journalist has been fined €20,000 (£13,500) after being found guilty of contempt for publishing evidence presented during a closed session of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY). Josip Jovic, a former editor-in-chief of the Croatian daily newspaper Slobodna Dalmacija, published transcripts and part of a statement given to the prosecutor by Croatia's President Stjepan Mesic in a series of articles in 2000. The ICTY said Jovic had ignored a specific cease-and-desist order issued by the tribunal. (Via United Nations)
