BELGRADE -- Zoran Vujović, 21, has been identified as the victim in Thursday's fire at the U.S. embassy in Belgrade.
Vujović, whose family now resides in Novi Sad, was a Kosovo Serb, forced out of the province when he was 12 years old. His identity was determined through DNA analysis, a spokesman for a district court in Belgrade said.
The exact cause and circumstances of his death were not given, according to agencies' reports. Vujović's charred body was recovered from the embassy, which was vandalized and set on fire Thursday, after several hundred rioters attacked the building, while a mass peaceful rally was ongoing in Belgrade.
The post mortem, conducted at the Belgrade military clinic, VMA, took 12 hours Friday. But the identity could not be confirmed, since even the bones of the victim's arms and legs were completely burned, reports say.
He was first identified by his father, Milan Vujović, who recognized some of the personal belongings that were recovered, including his son's gold chain. The DNA analysis later confirmed this.
His parents reported Vujović missing late Thursday. On Friday, the victim's father was looking for his son in MUP detention facilities, thinking that he may have been detained during the unrest.
The Vujović family were expelled from Čaglavica, near Priština, in July 1999.
I hope you and Serbia are thankful that Washington doesnt agree with your analysis.
LOL...War on terror my ass. The US is the terrorist country in this case, folks. Congrats! I was born and raised here, and am thoroughly embarrassed by our country’s actions in this debacle. For all of you crying about an empty embassy building being vandalized, boo hoo! Cry me a river. We bombed Belgrade for over 70 days as well as China’s embassy there without blinking. Many of you are extreme hypocrites, who actually have no knowledge of the area you’re trying to make an educated opinion on.
Blood feuds and 7th century thinking is what is going on over there. If you are a Serb then all the Albanians are Muslim....
I’m as much a citizen as you are, amiga. I will continue to stand up and say, no, our country is not always right. Keep your blinders on, you’ll be better off.
Then go live there. Hate America but still want to live here. Typical liberal mind set.
No, just the 80% of the Kosovar Albanians. You know what? Ignore the threat of radical Islam. It won’t be long before it’s on your own doorstep and you can learn about it firsthand.
You really shouldn’t put words in other peoples’ mouths. I said I hate America? Or did I say I’m embarrassed by our actions in this case.
The U.S. Embassy fire was a deliberate act of terrorism.”
The U.S. Embassy fire was a deliberate act of arson.
A deliberate act of arson and terrorism.
Was the pilot of the plane that bombed the Chinese Embassy a Terrorist?
“The Kosovo-Albanians have played us like a Stradivarius. We have subsidized and indirectly supported their violent campaign for an ethnically pure and independent Kosovo.We have never blamed them for being the perpetrators of the violence in the early ‘90s and we continue to portray them as the designated victim today in spite of evidence to the contrary. When they achieve independence with the help of our tax dollars combined with those of bin Laden and al-Qaeda, just consider the message of encouragement this sends to other terrorist-supported independence movements around the world. Funny how we just keep digging the hole deeper!”—Maj-Gen. Lewis MacKenzie
...you should find this guy, and have him deported as well. How dare he!!!
I made it clear to anyone who could read that I did not support their actions. So I obviously don’t agree. If you try to deny that 78 day bombing campaign was not an act of war, you are delusional and live in the fantasy world of “bombs for peace” Holbrook. Of course no war was declared and no official state of war exists. But people still kill and die.
First of all, the Chinese Embassy is not a U.S. Embassy.
Second, do you have any confirmation that the Chinese Embassy was the intended target of the pilot in question and that he bombed the embassy without the order of a higher official?
All i said is that the people who burned our embassy are terrorists.”
Do you believe that anyone who sets a building on fire is a terrorist?
For example, the people who blew-up the US Embassies in Africa were terrorists. The people who burned abortion clinics are terrorists as are people who burn down churches in order to send a political, social or religious message. And anyone who sets fire to an American Embassy is a terrorist.
Anybody who burns our Embassy in Kosovo is very likely AQ. Who do you think the KLA is?

Where was the terrorism? The building burned, that was arson. Where are the Americans that were blown up, had their heads cut off, etc.
Won’t be long before some of you will be calling TPing someone’s house a “deliberate act of terrorism”.
Who do you think the KLA is?”
The KLA is NOT Serbs.The KLA is who the U.S. bombed the Serbs for.
Actually we bombed the Serbs for the KLA. The KLA is who was supposedly getting genocided by the Serbs when in fact is was nothing more than a Civil War. It was actually the Serbs fighting back terrorism.
The KLA was the Heroin running operation for AQ. They ran it from Trashcanistan poppy fields to Europe so Clinton had us supporting AQ.
