| Dnevni List cover pg splash and pg 3 ‘Robinson: HVO was bank’s owner’ by D. P. Mandic – Hercegovacka Banka (HB) Provisional Administrator and key prosecution witness in the HB case Toby Robinson was cross-examined on Monday. Among the other things, Robinson stated: ‘If we look at the founders’ capital of the bank, we shall see that 100 % of money was coming from HVO through 6 companies and on the ground of this one can conclude that HVO was the bank’s owner.’ DL says that according to court documents, HVO was not a shareholder of the bank and there are no evidence that suspect in this case and former HDZ President Ante Jelavic owned a single HB share or that he was in some of the HB Steering Boards. Asked to prove that Jelavic allowed to use HVO funds for purchase of HB shares, Robinson said that she does not have a written document to prove it, however, the FBiH Ministry including its Minister at that time (referring to Jelavic) are responsible for costs.

An inset in SD under headline ‘Paying of OHR auditors’ says that paying of auditor’s company ‘Ernest Young’ is also disputable in this case. SD says that this company received 1,5 million Euros for their services in this case and out of this amount HB paid 300 000 Euros and the defense asked how it was possible that an insolvent bank pays such big amount. According to the article, Robinson said that the OHR engaged this company. SD says that this was done in spite of the fact that another company ‘De Loyte’ had better references at the international market at that time.
