| Sister of Djindic attacked, family threatened. |
| 2004-05-16 |
| Let’s remember that not all terrorism is of the mass-murdering kind. The sister of Serbia’s assassinated prime minister Zoran Djindjic has been attacked at her home and reportedly injected with an unknown substance. Unidentified men burst into Gordana Djindjic-Filipovic’s house south-west of Belgrade on Saturday night. She was in a "stable condition" after being taken to hospital for tests. Zoran Djindjic, a pro-western reformer who helped topple ex Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic, was shot dead by a Belgrade sniper in March last year. Thirteen suspects are being tried in connection with the assassination, although some have yet to be detained. Radio reports say Mrs Djindjic-Filipovic’s attackers threatened to kill the whole family if a key suspect in the murder case - Milorad Lukovic - was convicted. |
