MOSCOW March 31 - The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia [ICTY] will inform the UN Security Council of the findings of an investigation into the death of former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic in the near future, a source in the Russian Foreign Ministry told Interfax on Friday.

The briefing by ICTY top officials "was organized at Russia's request and was in many aspects brought about by the need to clarify the circumstances surrounding Milosevic's death in the Hague prison," the source said.

ICTY Chairman Fausto Pocar and other ICTY officials will report to the UN Security Council on the conditions of ICTY suspects' incarceration in the Hague prison and the tribunal's investigation into recent events in the Scheveningen prison, where trial suspects are held.
