In a statement, Mostar police said it was looking into a link between the discovery of the "sophisticated weaponry" and Sylvester's visit to Mostar.A police source in Mostar identified the man as Adnan Kadric, a member of a crime ring based in the central Bosnian town of Zenica, and said authorities had ordered that he remain in custody for eight days.
He said Kadric denies any wrongdoing, saying that he had bought the gun in the nearby town of Posusje and planned to deliver it to Zenica.
But the Croatian daily Vecernji List reported Monday that Kadric was "leader of a terrorist organisation in Zenica."
Citing sources from SFOR and UN's international police in Bosnia, the daily described Kadric as "an international terrorist, who has recently resided in Germany and Netherlands, where he was slightly wounded in a clash with Russian mafia three months ago."
"The police suspect Kadric of attempting to assassinate SFOR's commander," the daily said.
