German Teenager Harnessed to Horse Cart Rescued
The Telegraph ^ | 27 May 2012

A German teenager has been rescued from a Bosnian couple who are accused of starving and beating her for years and of harnessing her to a horse cart and making her pull it.

The 19-year-old, kept in a hamlet near the northeastern town of Kalesija since 2004, had been taken to safety and the couple had been detained for investigation, regional prosecutors said on Sunday.

Damir Arnautovic, a spokesman for the prosecution in Tuzla, said the woman had been in a bad physical and psychological state and had no papers. She was not named. He said Milenko Marinkovic, 52, and his wife Slavojka, 45, had been detained on suspicion of treating the woman in an inhuman way, "forbidding her any contacts with people, forbidding her to attend school."

The woman's German mother had once been married to Marinkovic, although the woman had a different father. Her mother still lives in the hamlet and told reporters there to go away.

Mr Arnautovic said the mother had been interrogated by the police as a witness and her role was being investigated.

Let’s see... Muslims selling a young woman into slavery? Is that too far-fetched?

Just another blaring example that muslims don’t care much for even their kin, much less anyone not deep into their 8th Century child molestation society.

Not their own kin. A stepdaughter by a former marriage - and her own kin, her own German mother, presumably non-Muslim unless she’s a Turk with German citizenship, relinquished her to her stepfather and step-stepmother, and lived in the same village where she was being mistreated.

Something wrong with the mother, and maybe a different kind of wrongness with the daughter, a developmental disability perhaps.

Bosnian Muslims show their true colors. I just hope that poor girl can recover.

I’m tempted to joke about celebrating diversity and the Religion of Peace, but this is too sickening to do so.

Given the name, I suspected the man is an ethnic Serb, but according to this, he’s Roma. Sorry to disappoint all those who believe that Muslims are to blame for everything bad. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5hlvw4bn0rrdM5cqiV4JKd0-OobZA?docId=CNG.49cbb747cb51f2b3497840b48c6e0510.6a1

Gypsies have been a plague on civilization for centuries.

Damir Arnautovic probably had an ancestor who was Albanian—Arnaut was the Ottoman Turkish word for “Albanian” (it’s Arnavut in modern Turkish). He is mentioned as the spokesman for the prosecution (not someone guilty of mistreating the girl).

Not sure what that has to do with anything, the perps are Milenko and Slavojka Marinkovic.
