Un recviem sârb
A Serbian Requiem

Summary/Abstract: Zoran Djindjic was assassinated by a hired killer. The “author” is known. Those who hired him and ordered the deed are also known. But who was – or still is for that matter – the gray eminence of this political crime? It is not the only one that happened in former Yugoslavia and especially in Serbia under and after Milosevic’s rule. Most of them have remained unsolved with perpetrators either unknown or on the run. Dunja Melcic presents the history of the gangs that have made the rule in Serbia after the disintegration of Yugoslavia. And is it a paradox that these gangs are no other than those bodies that should protect the state and its people from exactly the deeds they are blamed to have orchestrated or committed? The criminal network spreads wide and deep in the structure of the Serbian state, including various levels of the government and of its institutions, political pressures on the legislature and corruption.
