Milan Babić further stated that in early August 1991, he was threatened by Captain Dragan’s men. 4574 He then asked Milošević to remove Simatović from Knin. 4575 On 26 August 1991, Milošević told Babić that Simatović was a “good guy”, and that he would return to Krajina. 4576 Babić stated that Simatović was further present in the SAO Krajina from September until the end of 1991. 4577 Witness JF-039, a Serb from Croatia, 4578 testified that in June or July 1993, Stanišić came to Martić’s home in Knin. 4579 2166.

The Trial Chamber has reviewed evidence and made findings on several of these allegations in chapter 6.6.2 and chapter 6.3.2 in relation to the Golubić camp. 2167.
