On Friday evening 12.09, several lorries crossed the
border carring 68 Lipizzaners. The agreement at
ministerial level was not released to the public. The society Freedom for Animals was present on the final day, 22.09, of the combined Croation and Serbian commission's examination of the Lipizzaners at the Bukinac studd in Novi Sad. Shocked and surprised by what was discovered there the society, Freedom for Animals sent a request to Minister Slobodan Milosavljevic and Minister Sasha Dragin for urgent enforcement of the law in the Lipizzaner graveyard at the Bukinac studd in Novi Sad. Urgent removal of the horses from both studds belonging to Bukinac was requested as well as legal action against Bukinac and coll aborators for maltreating animals and endangering the environment. Evidence of the actual situation at the studd was delivered to the ministers on DVD. Bukinac threatened the society that he would not hand over the horses if the photographs were released to the public.
