Theodore Celakoski the rights of the city reminded that the construction of this project is provided on the basis of public interest - a hall for public facilities to be leased commercially, the Flower of passage that does not exist and the ramp that was built at the expense of public good in the pedestrian zone. He recalled how the project Flower financed from unknown sources, and that no day is not a judicial case is resolved because the drawers in the institution still standing criminal charges on suspicion of illegal agreement. Celakoski therefore the whole project is described as a huge real estate scam and robbery. "A similar situation happens in the rest of Croatian since we are constantly presents as the key to our real estate development business and construction of shopping centers, not production. Therefore our struggle will in the next period extended to the whole of Croatia," said the Celakoski.

main target of the protest, the corrupt state-owned companies, was the relevant Minister Bozidar Kalmeta, whose "command responsibility" is mentioned less and the opposition, so it is beneficial to have them to remind people in the parade. Prvoaprilsku could walk around even at the expense of occasional Sprdačina HDZ elite. At least on the banners, Kosoric is still perfectly spoke foreign languages, Hebrang is telling the truth, and the sex was sober.

2:40am: International news media were yesterday taken by Libyan government officials on a tour of areas reportedly shelled in NATO air strikes. An unidentified doctor told journalists in Sabha: “Many, many houses are around the hospital. I thought maybe it hit hospital. It was near the hospital.

A resident of Homs, 120km east of Tripoli, told the AFP news agency he heard explosions coming from a local naval base, which had earlier been targeted by NATO forces. Libyan State TV, however, reported the air strikes had hit residential neighbourhoods, saying: “Military and civilian areas in the Al Khums [Homs] and Al Rojban regions were targeted in raids by the Western assailants, crusaders and colonialists.”

He denounced the “disproportionate use of force”, saying: “The criminal's [Gaddafi's] forces fired at the city with all kinds of shells, rockets and bombs. Today they tried to reach the port, destroying everything on their path.” The Libyan foreign ministry said Monday that an anti-rebel offensive in Misrata had been stopped after security was restored.

4:44am At least one person was killed and several wounded early on Sunday when forces loyal to Gaddafi shelled a building in the rebel-held city of Misurata, a resident told the Reuters news agency. The shelling hit a building which was previously being used to treat the wounded from the fighting in Misrata, the resident said by telephone. He added: „We have one confirmed dead and we don't know how many wounded. The ambulances are arriving now bringing the wounded."
9:19am Around 70 corpses have been retrieved from the Mediterranean Sea over the past few days, and they're believed to be sub-Saharan refugees who tried to flee Libya. The bodies are believed to have belonged to a group of Eritreans who left Tripoli on March 28 on a dinghy, the head of the Jesuit Refugee Service in Malta told Al Jazeera. Some of the bodies washed up on shore, and others were picked up at sea across an area spanning 10 kilometres.
5:52pm Former Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa appears to have taken a pragmatic view of the conflict in Libya. Speaking to the BBC, he said: „It's quite clear in the best of worlds it would be a good thing for us to say you clobber [Gaddafi], capture him and let him stand for trial ... But we know that doesn't usually happen in the world in which we inhabit." He added that the "lesser of two evils" could be to allow Gaddafi to "have a soft landing and save the lives of as many people as you possibly can".

LIVE Libyan Unrest:Gaddafi forces shell the town of Yafran, killing two people and wounding four others
12:08pm: Government forces shelled a town in a mountainous region southwest of Libya’s capital on Sunday, killing two people, Arabiya television reported, quoting an eyewitness. “We are facing fierce attacks from the north since yesterday in the city of Yafran,” Arabiya cited a resident, Ezref, as saying. “Two people have died a short while ago and so far we have four wounded.”

3:50pm: Forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi attacked two towns on Sunday in a mountainous region southwest of the capital where local people have been defying Gaddafi's rule, residents said. Government forces used tanks to shell Zintan, 160 km (100 miles) from Tripoli, while two people were killed in shelling on nearby Yafran. Gaddafi's troops were killing farmers' livestock there, residents said. A resident in Zintan, which has been under siege and subject to intermittent bombardment for weeks, told Reuters by telephone the attacks had resumed. “Gaddafi's brigades bombarded Zintan with tanks in the early hours on Sunday. There has been random bombardment of the northern area (of Zintan). They are still besieging the town,” the resident, Abdulrahman, said. A resident in Yafran, quoted by Al Arabiya, a pan-Arab satellite television station, said the town had been subject to fierce attacks since Saturday. “Residential areas have been shelled with Grad rockets,” the channel quoted the resident, Ezref, as saying. “Two people have died a short while ago and so far we have four wounded.” The Zintan resident Abdulrahman said he had been in touch with relatives in Yafran who told him pro-Gaddafi forces had moved into the area around the town. “They have been searching houses … The soldiers have killed everything they found, including cattle. They have killed and eaten a countless number of sheep,” he said. “About 100 camels belonging to one of my relatives were killed. They kill everything.”
Libya: The rebels who survived the frontline but never came home
"Around 200 men disappeared from Ajdabiya alone," he said. "Some of them were fighters, some revolutionaries, some ordinary people who were picked up at random by Gaddafi's soldiers. We don't know what has happened to most of them. "Many had nothing to do with the revolution; most of them were civilians; there were some very young men, but also a few who were very old." Each piece of paper had carefully typed details of the missing man with a passport-style photograph attached. In the chaos of Free Libya, nobody knows for sure how many men have vanished; Mr Mohammad said he had heard that nearly 500 in total were unaccounted for including those from Benghazi and elsewhere. The Red Cross, which collects details of detainees and contacts their families in conflicts across the world, was unable to give a figure. It has not yet been allowed access to Gaddafi's prisons to speak to captives of the conflict. ... For several weeks the grotesque "confessions" of captured rebels have been broadcast nightly. Frightened-looking men showing signs of being beaten have owned up to the most outlandish behaviour, in confessions carefully tailored to fit the Colonel's propaganda rants; prisoners have admitted taking Nescafe spiked with hallucinogenic drugs and joining al-Qaeda, and apologised for their foolishness in joining the uprising against the Brother Leader. Several young men from Benghazi area have been seen, including a neighbour of the Albeidy family. Saleh Alatawish was captured in the town of Ras Lanuf, days after his brother was killed fighting in the uprising. ... After Mr Alatawish's confession Colonel Gaddafi mentioned him by name in a speech, graciously announcing that he would be free to go back to his family now he had seen the error of his ways. He has not returned, however, and may have been hanged.
