Civic Initiative Freedom, Democracy, Justice (GI SDP) announced they have submitted a petition signed by 1,730 citizens to name the square or Sutjeska Street after leader of this initiative, Oliver Ivanović who perished tragically, Radio kontakt plus reported.

The petition was submitted on Thursday, last week, at Mitrovica North Municipal Assembly session.

Director of Human Centre Mitrovica NGO, Veroljub Petronic told Radio Kontakt that the latest events in Staro Gracko are only one of the few security risks that contribute to the worsening of the overall security situation in Kosovo. He says in an interview with the radio that event in Staro Gracko last night was just one of the “small corps of security risks that contribute to the destabilization of the security situation in Kosovo”.

The party of the assassinated Kosovo Serb leader Oliver Ivanovic, the Civic Initiative SDP, urged today all investigative services and especially the EULEX, to intensify the probe into the January 16 murder.

In a statement, they appealed to both Belgrade and Pristina institutions “to use their authority and not allow that the perpetrators remain anonymous and unpunished.”

KFOR Commander General Salvatore Cuocci says that this peacekeeping mission will remain in Kosovo as long as needed, and that NATO currently does not plan to reduce the presence of international peacekeeping forces in Kosovo. Speaking about the action of Marko Djuric's arrest and attacks on journalists in North Mitrovica, Cuocci says that KFOR does not interfere with political or legal issues, national broadcaster RTS reports quoting daily Jedinstvo based in North Mitrovica.

Leader of Serb European Movement and a former member of the Kosovo Assembly, Rada Trajkovic said last night in Kraljevo not a single murder in the north of Kosovo has been resolved and that the north of Kosovo is run by the mafia, Blic daily reported.

Trajkovic added that following the murder of Oliver Ivanovic, many Serbs feel safer in Pristina than in northern Kosovo.

Trajkovic made these remarks in a debate held in Kraljevo and dedicated to Oliver Ivanovic, his murder, motives for it and the course of the investigation.

Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister Enver Hoxhaj claims that Belgrade refuses to cooperate with Pristina regarding Oliver Ivanovic’s murder and that responses to the murder are hidden in Belgrade, Serbian media reported.

Meanwhile, Serbian Interior Minister, Nebojsa Stefanovic told RTS Serbia is interested the case of Oliver Ivanovic’s murder to be resolved, but he does not see the readiness of Pristina authorities to do so.

Serbian daily Kurir reported that Miroslav, brother of murdered Oliver Ivanovic, said surveillance cameras in the party’s premises were working at the time of the assassination of CI SDP leader, despite of information from the Kosovo prosecution claiming the cameras started working only 10 minutes after the murder.

The first associate of Oliver Ivanovic, Ksenija Bozovic, says the GI SDP leader, who was shot and killed on January 16, was being followed.

Bozovic also told Budimir Nikic during the Slobodno Srpski program that the entire investigation process is being "watered down."

The website KoSSev is reporting that Bozovic stressed she had given her statement about the murder twice, while only one unofficial call came from the prosecution in Belgrade, which is also conducting an investigation.

Four months after the murder of Oliver Ivanovic, there is no progress in the investigation, Deputy Leader of Civic Initiative, Freedom, Democracy, Justice, (CI SDP) Ksenija Bozovic said in Slobodno srpski talk show.

Bozovic also said she was told in a Kosovo Special Prosecution Office where she was giving a testimony, that surveillance cameras placed in a building where CI SDP offices are located and Ivanovic murdered in front of it, did not work at the time when the murder occurred.

Pristina Special Prosecution took over the investigation of Oliver Ivanovic murder in March, and one of the prosecutors in this case Syle Hoxha said there are no suspects identified, adding that “gathering of evidence is still underway,” KIM Radio reported.

Prosecutor Hoxha briefly responded to Insajder questions, saying there are neither new information related to the vehicle seen on surveillance cameras’ records on the spot of the murder, later burned down, nor new recordings of the murder.
