SERB ARRESTED IN NORTH KOSOVO

BELGRADE, DECEMBER 21 /SRNA/ – Serb Vidosav M. was arrested in his home in Lešak in Kosovo and Metohija by Albin Kurti’s phalanxes as part of the violent pre-election campaign he is conducting, the Office for Kosovo and Metohija announced.

The Office stressed that this was an unfounded arrest and a classic attack on Serbs for pre-election purposes, as evidenced by the fact that no evidence was found in the arrested man’s house, while during the search his family was subjected to unacceptable intimidation. It was emphasized that Vidosav M. was arrested in his own home, which clearly shows that he had nothing to hide, and that the entire operation carried out for Kurti’s needs was conducted in front of the eyes of this Serb’s family, which experienced unprecedented stress. “Such anti-Serb operations by Kurti and Sveçla serve only to deceive the public and intimidate Serbs, all with the aim that Kurti, through attacks on north Kosovo and Metohija, tries to win a few more votes in the December elections, given that he has nothing else to offer his voters,” the Office added. It was noted that for this very reason, on the first day of the campaign Kurti opened an unfinished pedestrian bridge over the Ibar, which according to all evidence from the ground represents a security threat, and just one day later he opened another police outpost in Leposavić.
