Utpekad svensk säger att han inte minns: ”En dimma”
En av de svenskar som pekas ut för terrorattentatet mot en DC-9:a 1972 medger för TV4:s Kalla fakta att han vid tidpunkten var Sverige-chef för den kroatiska motståndsrörelsen Otpor.
Han säger även att han tror att ”tre eller fyra” personer ur grupperingen var inblandade i sprängdådet. När reportern påpekar att han om någon borde veta svarar mannen att det ”inte är saker man pratar om”.
Kanalen har tagit del av tidigare hemligstämplade dokument från forna Jugoslavien där mannen pekas ut som den som skaffade sprängmedel till explosionen. Själv säger mannen att han inte minns.
– Jag kommer inte ihåg, jag har som en dimma i skallen, säger han.
27 människor dödades i attentatet. Samtliga utpekade nekar till inblandning.

bakgrund
Otpor
Wikipedia (en)
The Croatian National Resistance (Croatian: Hrvatski narodni otpor, HNO; Spanish: Resistencia Nacional Croata), also referred to as Otpor, was an Ustaša organization founded in 1955 in Spain. The HNO ran an armed organisation, Drina, which continued to be active well into the 1970s.
The organization operated between legitimate emigre functions and a thuggish underworld. Its leaders tried to distance the organization from the acts of the so-called renegade elements. It embraced a radical nationalist ideology that differed only marginally from Ustaše ideology.
The HNO had stated in their constitution that:
[We] regard Yugoslavism and Yugoslavia as the greatest and only evil that has caused the existing calamity... We therefore consider every direct or indirect help to Yugoslavia as treason against the Croatian nation... Yugoslavia must be destroyed—be it with the help of the Russians or the Americans, of Communists, non-Communists or anti-Communists—with the help of anyone willing the destruction of Yugoslavia: destroyed by the dialectic of the word, or by dynamite—but at all costs destroyed.
The organization published its own magazine, Drina. It existed until 1991.
bakgrund
JAT Flight 367
Wikipedia (en)
JAT Flight 367 was a McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32 aircraft (registration YU-AHT) which exploded shortly after overflying NDB Hermsdorf (located in or around Hinterhermsdorf, in the present-day municipality of Sebnitz), East Germany, while en route from Stockholm, Sweden, to Belgrade, SFR Yugoslavia, on 26 January 1972. The aircraft, piloted by Captain Ludvik Razdrih and First Officer Ratko Mihić, broke into three pieces and spun out of control, crashing near the village of Srbská Kamenice in Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic). Of the 28 on board, 27 were killed upon ground impact and one Serbian crew member, Vesna Vulović (1950–2016), survived. She holds the Guinness world record for surviving the highest fall without a parachute at 10,160 m (33,330 ft).
