Capturing And Execution Of General Mihailovic 1946: New Information On The Archival Sources

Summary/Abstract: General Dragoljub M. Mihailovic (1893–1946), Commander of the Yugoslav Homeland Army, Chief of Staff of the Supreme Command of the Yugoslav Army 1941–1945 and Minister of the Army in Yugoslav governments 1942–1944, was captured on the 13 March 1946 by the Department for Protection of the People under the circumstances which were for decades unknown and unconfirmed by archival sources.. Until recently, Serbian historiography could not obtain sufficient material to solve the issues of his capturing and shooting. This article presents evidence on the issue of his capture, but not on the execution. The documentation on capturing, investigating, processing and executing General Mihailovic was moved from one institution to another according to the interests of the regime. Hence it was fragmented, partially used by trusted publicists and hidden in special stakes. In the course of this procedure, its most valuable parts have disappeared.
