She said that NATO officials had this time the referred to their NATO mandate when searching the home, not citing a Hague Tribunal search warrant like last time. She said that the troops had entered the house at about 03:00 CET and that the search had lasted about three and a half hours. She added that she, her mother and brother were all questioned regarding their contacts, and if they had had any encounters with the two Hague fugitives. Karadzic-Jovicevic confirmed that she and her brother had been interviewed by phone and that nothing had been removed from the home by NATO officials on this occasion.
