number of claim forms submitted to the Captain Dragan Fund which indicated that Nedeljko
(Ilija) Orlić, 2478 Ratko (Sposo) Knežević, 2479 Dušan Mastikosa, 2480 Milorad Đuđić, 2481 and
Nikola Mirčeta 2482 trained at Golubić, with Captain Dragan, Crnogorac (which the Trial
Chamber understands to refer to Živojin Ivanović), and Irac (which the Trial Chamber
understands to refer to Martin/Mark Lynch).
1351. The Trial Chamber will now review the evidence indicating that training at Golubić
ended in July or August 1991, amidst conflicts between Martić, Babić, Simatović, and
Captain Dragan.
1352. Witness JF-039 testified that a month or two after Golubić was established a conflict
developed between Martić and Simatović. 2483 Martić felt that Simatović was taking too much
control over the TO men that were training at Golubić. 2484 In July 1991, Martić was very
angry with Simatović as the latter was constantly flaunting the money he had, was surrounded
by people who drank a lot, and was involved with local women. 2485 Local politicians in Knin
were also becoming very concerned with the behaviour of the recruits from Golubić as they
were arrogant, were better equipped than the local police, and were causing problems for the
local police. Martić called Stanišić in June 1991 to have Simatović removed from the training
centre and the Krajina. 2486 In June or July, Martić transferred all of the TO command and
Captain Dragan’s command to the fortress in Knin, and placed the TO and Captain Dragan’s
unit under a single command. 2487 Initially, Simatović also went to the fortress in Knin for
about two or three weeks. 2488 Simatović was then called back to Belgrade for about two weeks
