resolution, the TO was officially dissolved and turned into a civilian organization in April<br />

1992, the Trial Chamber finds that the weapons were delivered to the SAO Krajina TO from<br />

late 1991 to April 1992. 4673 In light of the above, the Trial Chamber finds that Stanišić,<br />

among others, directed and organized logistical support in the form of weapons for the SAO<br />

Krajina TO from late 1991 to April 1992.<br />

2211. With regard to other assistance and support provided to the SAO Krajina Police, the<br />

Trial Chamber recalls its finding in chapter 6.6.2 that Simatović provided communication<br />

equipment to the SAO Krajina Police on at least one occasion in April 1991.<br />

2212. As to further assistance to the SAO Krajina Police after April 1991, the Trial Chamber<br />

observes that sometime before <strong>May</strong> 1992, the SSNO delivered 12 combat-armoured vehicles<br />

and 100 motor vehicles to the SAO Krajina Police. 4674 The Trial Chamber has further<br />

reviewed several requests for assistance addressed to the VJ, the (S)FRY Presidency, and the<br />

Serbian MUP, but it is unable to conclude whether any of these requests were met or whether<br />

the Accused played any role in providing such assistance. The Trial Chamber further observes<br />

that the Serbian MUP assisted Martić in solving problems with communication links, and that<br />

the RSK and the Serbian MUP cooperated in facilitating cross-border movement of the<br />

employees of both organizations, but it has not received any evidence about the Accused’s<br />

role therein.<br />

2213. In light of its finding recalled above, the Trial Chamber finds that Simatović directed<br />

and organized assistance to the SAO Krajina Police in April 1991 by providing it with<br />

communication equipment.<br />

2214. As for the SAO Krajina TO, in the absence of evidence in this respect, the Trial<br />

Chamber is unable to conclude that the Accused directed and organized any other support or<br />

assistance to the SAO Krajina TO, besides the logistical support addressed above.<br />

2215. The Trial Chamber made its findings above without relying on the evidence on the<br />

presence of the Accused in the region at the relevant time. The evidence it has received in this<br />

respect is insufficient to conclude that the Accused’s presence served the financing of or other<br />

assistance to the SAO Krajina Police or the SAO Krajina TO.<br />
