The Presidency of the Association of Kosovo Historians ‘Ali Hadri’, the Decani branch, harshly reacted to statements by, as they assessed, an anti-Albanian priest – Abbot Sava Janjic, who has been serving in the Albanian Orthodox monastery of Decani, a monastery usurped by Serbian occupiers – since the medieval period. They gave the statement last night for the Voice of America news program.

Аn incident occurred on Wednesday near the village of Zac, in the Klina municipality, when a group of local Albanians intercepted the vehicle of a local Serbian Orthodox priest Fr. Stevan Marković who was returning with his family from a service at the Pec Patriarchate Monastery – the Diocese of Raska-Prizren stated in a press release. This incident is the latest reported in a series of attacks on local Serbs and their property this week.

The leadership of Dečani/Deçan Municipality has called for protests on Thursday in that town due to the Constitutional Court’s decision that Visoki Dečani Monastery owns 24 hectares of land around that monastery, Pristina-based media informed.

The Mayor of Dečani/Deçan, Rasim Selmanaj, has called on protests through his Facebook account, and said that decision of the Constitutional Court is ‘unjust and influenced by politics’.
