Staro Gracko: Tomorrow will be held memorial service for the killed harvesters (KiM radio)

Tomorrow will be 15th anniversary from the murder of 14 Serbian harvesters in Staro Gracko, near Lipljan. They were killed from the ambush and the youngest of them was seventeen. Memorial service will serve the clergy of the Diocese of Ras and Prizren.

In October 2007, UNMIK police arrested Mazljum Bitici, from the village of Veliki Alas, near Lipljan on suspicion of having participated in the murder. Bitici, after two months, due to lack of evidence, was released. The killing of the harvesters is one of the worst crimes against Serbs since the arrival of the international mission in Kosovo. Families of victims are still waiting bringing perpetrators to the justice.
