Marinkovic was abducted in 1999 and later murdered, sources in the Kosovo Police Service confirmed.

Luckily, at the time of the explosion none of the members of Slobodan's family were at home.

The Marinkovic property is inhabited by his widow, their two children, who are both minors, and his father and mother. They were all in another house at the time of the explosion.

Slobodan Marinkovic was kidnapped in 1999 and later murdered. He was later identified and buried.

After the house was blown up, Kosovo Police Service and international police teams went to the scene and an investigation is in progress.

Milenko Vulic from village of Devet Jugovica brutally beaten

Milenko Vulic, a 62 year-old Serb man from the village of Devet Jugovica near Pristina, was admitted to the hospital in northern Kosovska Mitrovica today after being beaten up on Saturday by Albanians, deputy hospital director Milan Ivanovic told Tanjug news agency.

Ivanovic said that Vulic was brutally beaten by four neighbors of Albanian nationality in front of his own house and that he was admitted to hospital with serious head injuries.

According to Vulic, the Albanians told him that he must leave Kosovo.

After receiving treatment for head injuries, a neurological specialist was consulted and Vulic was subsequently placed in intensive care for further therapy. "His injuries are serious and it remains to be seen what complications will result from the fact that he was transferred to our hospital with a delay," said Ivanovic.

"This attack on a Serb elderly man demonstrates that UNMIK chief Soren Jessen-Petersen's assessments that standards are being fulfilled and that the security situation in the Province is better than it was before are false. All his assessments serve solely to justify the catastrophic UN mission in Kosovo and Metohija," said Ivanovic, who is also the president of the Serb National Council of Northern Kosovo.

He condemned the attack on Vulic, emphasizing that it represented "yet another brutal ethnically motivated attack on an innocent elderly Serb in Kosovo and Metohija" and asked when the perpetrators would be found and brought to justice.

 


 

Automobile Carrying Serbian Youths Ambushed

Pristina, 8 May (SRNA) - This morning at approximately 2:30 a.m. on the road from Pristina to the Serbian village of Donja Brnjica, in the immediate vicinity of Gazimestan, unknown persons wearing camouflage uniforms intercepted an automobile carrying three Serbian young men from Gazimestan.

The attackers first allowed two vehicles from a convoy to pass, then jumped out of the bushes next to the road and attempted to stop the last vehicle by pointing a gun at it.

Driver Boban Nicic (20) stepped on the gas instead and the attackers then fired multiple shots at the automobile.

One bullet hit the right front wheel and two others pierced the rear window of the vehicle. Luckily, Nicic and his two passengers, Bojan Miladinovic(20) and Bojan Ristic (17), were unharmed.

Members of the Kosovo Police Service and international police soon arrived on the scene and established that five bullets had been fired.

The shot up vehicle was kept in the Vranjevac Police Station while the three Serbian young men were returned home after two and a half hours of questioning with orders, according to Nicic, to stay in their houses.

There are approximately 2,500 Serbs still living in this Serbian village just north of Pristina. The only place some 300 Serbian young men and women can go out is Gracanica, some 15 kilometers away, the very place the young Serbs had visited that night before the attack.

Grenade lobbed at train

Lipljan - On Sunday evening at approximately 7:35 p.m. an unknown perpetrator threw a hand grenade at a train traveling from Kosovska Mitrovica to Lipljan in the immediate vicinity of the cemetery at the entrance to Lipljan.

The grenade bounced from the window of the train and exploded. No one was killed or injured.

Slavko Janicijevic, a Serb representative from Lipljan, told SRNA that members of KFOR immediately stopped the train, which was transporting some 50 Serbs who were returning from Kosovska Mitrovica. The passengers were then dropped off safely to the Serb quarter of Lipljan with the help of the Kosovo Police Service.

An investigation is in progress. The bomb attack caused unrest among the remaining Serbs in central Kosovo and Metohija, especially after last night's attack by unknown persons on three Serbian young men traveling by automobile at the entrance to the village of Donja Brnjica near Pristina.

I have to admit that I was not aware of what was really going on in Kosovo and the bombing of Yugoslavia. I fell for a lot of the crap from billybob and the msm, Michael Savage finally goaded me into researching it. Never again.

On top of everything that happened in past few days in Kosovo, I really got upset with decision of Kosovo Municipal Assembly to build a Nazi monument in rememberance of SS Skenderbeg division (comprised of Albanians).

How far they will go?!

According to Agim Ceku, USIP's favorite war criminal,Serbs are safe in Kosovo.

"Security isn’t a problem in Kosovo, Serbs only think that they are without security. This is an issue of their perception. They have never checked whether they are safe or not. Serbs have free movement, they can go into the institutions, they can cooperate with Albanian majority. I believe that this is a psychological barrier against Albanians,” said Ceku, speaking at the Washington Institute for War and Peace."

It is not shocking that Agim Cheku, a criminal who bloodied his own hands murdering civilians in Krajina and Kosovo speaks like this. It is shocking that there are still people in Washington DC who spend taxpayer's money to invite this criminal to U.S.A. to speak.

Ceku is criminal, they are accomplices after the fact.

>>>>>>>I really got upset with decision of Kosovo Municipal Assembly to build a Nazi monument in rememberance of SS Skenderbeg division (comprised of Albanians). How far they will go?!<<<<<<

The question is - why should they stop? Kosovo is perhaps the best performed media hoax ever and perps have profited from it handsomely. They have no incentive to stop.

The lasting monument to Hitler is already erected in Kosovo - Kosovo is today JUDENREIN, owing to sons and gransons of Albanian Waffen SS Skenderbeg.

During Kosovo war, Kosovo Albanian terrorist propaganda was distributed through NATO channels and accepted as a fact by mainstream media outlets.

Kosovo Albanians, perpetrators of THE HOLOCAUST, were misrepresented as the victims of holocaust. Even worse, the lies of their propagandists were used to smear The HOLOCAUST.

This example is the most telling.

One of the lies was that Serbs incinerate Albanians in crematoria.

London Daily Mirror wrote:

"Trepca - the name will live alongside those of Belsen, Auschwitz and Treblinka,"

This is perhaps the worst incident of Holocaust denial because Trepca is a lie. It implies that Belsen, Auschwitz and Treblinka are also lie.

Who knows, perhaps Waffen SS Skenderbeg memorial will be presented in mainstream media as contribution of Kosovo Albanians to the Allied efforts in WWII.

Nennsy, can you provide more details on this decision?

Very short. Dropped off our load, picked up a new load, and left.

It was printed in London's Daily Mirror in April 1999.

"Trepca - the name will live alongside those of Belsen, Auschwitz and Treblinka...It will be etched in the memories of those whose loved ones met a bestial end in true Nazi final solution fashion"

I can not find the original Daily Mirror article, but here is a reference to this article in The Sunday Times (UK), October 1999

Daily Mirror NEVER apologized.

Also, you may Google the exact phrase Trepca - the name will live alongside those of Belsen, Auschwitz and Treblinka"
