Last Saturday marked fourteen months since leader of Civic Initiative Freedom, Democracy, Justice (SDP) Oliver Ivanovic was killed in front of his party premises. Despite the fact that both Belgrade and Pristina are running investigations instigators and perpetrators of the murder remain unknown. The GI SDP party stated that “the investigation is going nowhere“ and that “someone wants the murder to be covered up and forgotten“.

Political representatives of Belgrade and Pristina exchanged again mutual accusations related to the murder of Oliver Ivanovic, Radio kontakt plus reports.

Office for Kosovo and Metohija Director Marko Djuric accused Kosovo leaders for the murder of Ivanovic. Djuric added “there are more and more indicators pointing out that Kosovo President Hashim Thaci, Kosovo Assembly Speaker Kadri Veseli and current Pristina authorities are behind the murder of one of the Kosovo Serbs leaders Oliver Ivanovic.”

Anyone who feels shame would either resign or withdraw from the talks on Kosovo which deteriorated the status of Serbia, opposition leader Dragan Djilas said in a letter he sent to President Aleksandar Vucic, suggesting that the talks should involve someone “more intelligent, capable and fair.”

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic met on Friday with Srpska Lista (SL) representatives in Raska, including SL deputy-chair, Milan Radoicic, KoSSev portal reports.

Radoicic has made few public appearances since he avoided arrest by the special Kosovo police forces in Mitrovica North on November 23, last year. The Special Prosecutor’s Office of Kosovo has issued a warrant for his arrest on the suspicion of involvement in the murder of Oliver Ivanovic.

The Vice-President of Srpska Lista, Milan Radoicic, who is being investigated by the Kosovo Prosecutor’s Office regarding his involvement in Oliver Ivanovic’s murder, organized crime and drug trafficking, and would be arrested if he returned to Kosovo, has passed polygraph testing in central Serbia and is moving freely, KoSSev portal reports.

This is possible because the investigative and judicial authorities of Serbia and Kosovo are not cooperating at a practical level, nor do they have mechanisms that would allow them to cooperate directly.

Second “One in Five Million” protest took place in Mitrovica on Saturday and ended without major incidents, KoSSev portal reports.

The main request of participants in the protest was to shed the light on the murder of Oliver Ivanovic, but they also voiced stances against unification of Mitrovica, Pristina’s tariffs as well as a request to release Zoran Djokic, arrested at Jarinje crossing point, almost a month ago.

The first “One of Five Million” protest was held on Saturday in Mitrovica North. Around one hundred people attended the protest. Their demands, as they say, are simple – they want to know who the perpetrators and instigators of the murder of Oliver Ivanovic are, and for everyone in Serbia to have the right to think freely, KoSSev portal reports.

“What has been done so far in Serbia, points out to complete innocence of Milan Radoicic and there was no his involvement in that,” long-term Pristina lawyer Zivojin Jokanovic, told RTV KIM show “Dogovor,” in relation to the murder of Oliver Ivanovic. Jokanovic earlier announced he is “a future defense lawyer” of Radoicic “in case he is brought before the justice,” KoSSev portal reports.

Jokanovic said “that the investigation has done a lot in Serbia.” Responding to moderator’s remark “how come we know almost nothing about it,” he said, “and to know what?”
