'Leprosy drug in Milosevic's blood'
Traces of a drug used to treat leprosy and tuberculosis were found in a blood sample taken in recent months from former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, a news report has said.
The report came hours after Milosevic's legal adviser revealed a letter the late Serb leader wrote on Friday, one day before his body was discovered in prison, alleging that he was being poisoned.
In the report by state broadcaster NOS, a lawyer and commentator for the channel, Heikelina Verrijn Stuart, said she had confirmation that doctors first noticed the medicine in his blood in January.
Stuart said the drugs interfered with other medicine Milosevic was taking for high blood pressure and vascular disease.
"They were counterproductive," said Stuart, a lawyer who has closely followed the proceedings. "What we do know is that this is the cause of death and you can't say that it was really a case of natural death."
Stuart said the tribunal only learned of the presence of the drug in his blood last week, on March 7.
"It's naturally a riddle," she said.
Dutch doctors conducted a post mortem examination on Milosevic's remains on Sunday, but the results were not expected to be released until Monday.
A tribunal spokeswoman said she could not comment on the news report. "We don't have any information. We simply have to wait for the results" of the autopsy report, said Alexandra Milenov.
Doctors found traces of the drug when they were searching for an answer to why Milosevic's medication for high blood pressure was not working, the report said.

"They were counterproductive," said Stuart, a lawyer who has closely followed the proceedings. "What we do know is that this is the cause of death and you can't say that it was really a case of natural death."
And he dies one day after he writes and mails a letter stating he is being poisoned to the Russians asking for help.
Clintoncide?
fyi
In other words, no need for Clinton to testify as a hostile witness?
A physician friend just confirmed that this class of antibiotics is well-known for fatal interactions with hypertension meds, specifically causing vasoconstriction leading to MI.
So if the report is true, then yes it appears he was poisoned.
Question is what will the world authorities do, what can they do with confirmed knowledge that Milosevic was poisoned?
If they investigate and prosecute the killer, then there may still be a way to trace the scheme back to its source followed by a hope for justice.
What better way to go in his situation? He has successfully taken his verdict of guilt and punishment away from his prosecute and won the final round.
Can't say as I blame him in his position.
Now to figure out who and how he got his poison. I'd say the defense attorney would likely be suspect.
Is that the anti-Slobo pro UN spin now? That the most important prisoner for the international court was able to go past security and poison himself?
A very easy riddle. Wink, wink.
Someone had contact with him in some way. Poison can be carried by an unknowing third party on documents or other items.
As for his attorney, I'm sure he had an adviser or other visitors that could have brought documents etc without notice.
It took two months for word to get to the tribunal from the 'mystified' doctors. And it sounds as if they couldn't figure out where it was coming from? Heh, heh. Slow communication over there.
Even in death, Slobo mocks the international criminal court.
These Serbs are magicians - they can not only hide mass graves but they can sneak medicine in past the UN court security so Slobo can take medicine and die making the UN look bad.
Then we best be seeing some noses and fingers falling off! Gad! The Colonel is sure a mean drunk...
Oh I doooo love games so!
Sound like another McDougal situation.
Sounds like another McDougal situation.
Seriously, I think it was suicide.
according to those who hold that view the Russians used special forces using super duper KGB technology to get them into Syria under our AWACs noses.
The UN murdered him. The defense attorney's that the UN assigned were not pals of Slobo and were not liable to sneak in drugs for him to help him suicide.
What took them so long?
Send in the clowns ... don't bother, they're here.
I have no argument about his death. I merely state that I would have stolen the hangman's moment if I were in this position and figure he somehow did.
The guard of the UN is no match for a dedicated assassin or assistant.
When your enemy is in the process of killing himself, the last thing you want to do is interrupt him.
Slobo died on the eve of Zoran Djindjic's death. I don't believe in coincidences - on such a day any mourning for Slobo would be counteracted by mourning for Djindjic thus lessening the impact of Slobo's death.
Of course you do and so do I.
What's the difference between insisting that a death was accidental, and insisting the death was caused by a specific party, without knowing all the facts?
The medicine in question would cancel out the heart medicine given. No accident. Done with foresight and I think malice.
And a week after his star defense witness commits "suicide?" Something stinks here. Something stinks to high heaven.
Of course it does.
The problem is you don't see a problem. People with that attitude tend to make great camp capos.
Occam's Razor decides the blame for you.
Occam’s razor:
In its simplest form, Occam's razor states that explanations should never multiply causes without necessity. When two explanations are offered for a phenomenon, the simplest full explanation is preferable. One should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything.
They say one should only say good of the dead. This SOB is dead. Good
Well, the drugs obviously hadn't "done their magic" so they wanted to give it a little more time. If they had only waited another week or so, no one would ever know.
Think about it. Who profits? Other Serbs, muslims, the US, Russia?
The man had many enemies. I sound like a bad TV detective show, but that's the fact.
One of his enemies saw a profit in shutting him up.
I don't know about that. Seems to me the only war crimes may have been committed AGAINST Slobo, not by him. We were soooo lied to at the time, I Don't know if there is any way to tease out what the truth is now. THe fact that he dies while getting ready to put on his defense, when he'd promised to blow the lid off of some things, leads me to suspect conspiracy and murder, murder most foul.
If that sounds too outlandish, well, I would have found Oil For Food too outlandish to be credible, back when the world was saying WE were starving the Iraqi children.
MEthinks he was about to finger somebody. Somebody big. Somebody couldn't afford to allow him to put on his defense. The Russians have been known to use these sorts of techniques, e.g., they Ricin Umbrella, and the Ukrainian dude that turned purple.
Ain't the Russians this time.
The Ricin Umbrella attack was a Bulgarian operation - which was also the outfit that many blame for the attempt on the Pope's life. It could have been the KGB that showed them how or they came up with the technique on their own.
True, I would think the Russians would have done a much better job.
Anyway a day before he dies Slobo writes a 6 page letter to the Russians that he has been slipped a drug designed to make his heart medicine not work.
He is dead the next day in his cell.
Eyebrows tend do go up reading this...
It doesn't have to be true. Even if it is incontrovertably proven that there was no poisoning, Milosevic will now be a martyr.
Anyone having any exposure to the Balkan mentality will understand why. I have seen arguments going back-and-forth between Serbs, Croats, Albanians, Turks, Greeks, etc. First and foremost is the tribe. And when they don't have members of other tribes to hate, they happily commence hating each other.
The ultimate quagmire.
Who is that person? Thanks
Well in this case it just may have the inkling of truth which will indeed make Slobo (the least deserving of all) martyrs. But if true a martyr none the less.
LOL! By the time this is all over the man will have died of a thousand different things....poison...TB..heart attack...
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
