(ANSA) - BELGRADE, OCT 7 - The Croatian Police Directorate
has formed a task force that will investigate violences against
migrants allegedly committed on the border between Croatia and
Bosnia, local media reported today. The decision comes after new
videos emerged showing masked persons hitting migrants and
pushing them back from Croatia to Bosnia and Herzegovina, the
regional television N1 reported. The men hit them with batons
used by riot police and wore uniforms used by the police forces
in Croatia, media claimed. The footage, shot in June, is part of
a journalistic investigation in which also the Croatian
television RTL took part, together with Lighthouse Reports, a
investigative journalistic network, the Swiss SRF Rundschau, the
German ARD, the French Liberation, the Dutch Pointer, the
Croatian Novosti, and the German weekly Der Spiegel. (ANSA).
