KOSOVSKA
MITROVICA - Three Serbs from Caglavica and Laplje
Selo in Kosovo and Metohija were the latest victims of violence and
plunder, the International Press Center of the Coordination Center for
Kosmet in Kosovska Mitrovica announced on Friday.
A little
after 2 a.m. early Friday morning, a group of armed ethnic Albanians
stopped Slavisa Stolic, a Serb, who was driving home. The attackers
evicted Stolic from his car and stole his Golf, the statement said.
Minutes later, ethnic Albanian robbers drove another Golf, owned
by Professor Dejan Mitic, from his courtyard in Laplje Selo to the
nearest gas station. There, they demanded from attendant Zoran Dragovic
to fill up the tank and, afterwards, pistol-butted him on the head.
Luckily, Dragovic managed to escape to the first Serb house and call
the police.
According to the International Press Center,
this morning Dragovic identified one of the attackers from photographs
in the files of the Kosovo police in Gracanica.
The Center
said that recently there has been a rise in intimidation, siezures of
Serb property, kidnappings and death threats to the Kosovo-Metohija
Serbs.
