Investigation of Milosevic Ordered

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AP) -- The Belgrade prosecutor's office on Wednesday ordered police to investigate Slobodan Milosevic, the first legal move against the former president before his likely arrest.

In a statement, carried by Beta news agency, the prosecutor ordered police to investigate reports that that Milosevic had transferred more than 400 pounds of gold out of the country last year.

Since his ouster last October, the new pro-democracy authorities have pledged to bring Milosevic to trail to answer for 13 years of alleged misrule.
