Greece Finally Starts to Review Accounts Connected to Milosevic

September 18, 2001, the media reported the Greek Government, specifically its Ministry of Justice, has begun to examine more than 250 accounts held at banks in Athens by companies connected to the former Yugoslav President, Slobodan Milosevic. The examination responded to a request by the chief prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY) Carla del Ponte. She apparently obtained details of the accounts from Serbian authorities in an effort to trace the Milosevic regime’s illegal financial dealings.
