Del Ponte told the council that Republika Srpska -- which has not apprehended a single individual indicted by the tribunal -- must also take action now to hand over fugitives.

Croatian Prime Minister Ivo Sanader has apparently stepped up efforts to arrest Croatian general Ante Gotovina, who is considered a national hero and disappeared in June 2001 after being informed by Croatian authorities of a sealed indictment against him, she said.
