  Gospic - Croatia
GOSPIC, a town in the central part of Lika, situated on a drained plateau near the Novcica river; elevation 656 m; population 9,025.
However, it is interesting that Dragutin Franic, a professor from Gospic, wrote an extensive book under the title The Plitvice Lakes and Their Surroundings as early as 1910, and predicted the importance of tourism for this region.
Gospic is the starting point of several routes toward Velebit (Gospic - Ostarije, 27 km; Gospic - Pazariste - Stirovaca - Veliki Alan, 60 km), and the vicinity of Hotel Velebno in Baske Ostarije provides excellent opportunities for winter and ski tourism.

Mr Risley said the tribunal's investigation into war crimes in Gospic had not yet reached the trial stage and therefore Levar was not actually a witness, even though he might have been asked to testify in the future.

Gospic county court judge Pavao Rukavina said that police had discovered pieces of an explosive device in Levar's yard, thus ruling out an earlier theory that the blast could have been caused by a gas bottle exploding.
