Cardinal Franjo Kuharic, president of the Bishops’ Commission of Yugoslavia (BCY) requested Bishop Zanic to enlarge the number of members of the Commission of Inquiry to include experts competent to study the various aspects of Medjugorje. Though Bishop Zanic complied with the request and increased the members to 14, it did not foster confidence that the committee was proceeding unbiased, as many (10) of the members had already stated that they were against the alleged apparitions.
