MADRID (AP) — Spanish police said Friday they have arrested two men involved in the assassination of Serbia‘s premier in 2003.
A National Police official said that agents arrested Luka Bojovic and Vladimir Milisavljevic in a restaurant in the eastern coastal city of Valencia on Thursday. He spoke on condition of anonymity in line with police rules.
The official said the two were involved in the 2003 assassination of Serbia’s Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic.
He said the agents also arrested a third man, Sinisa Petric.
The official said the three were members of the Serbian paramilitary group known as “Arkan’s Tigers.”
Police said Bojovic is wanted for 20 murders in Serbia, the Netherlands and Spain.
Milisavljevic was sentenced in Serbia to 35 years for his involvement in the Djindjic assassination and to another 40 years for various other crimes. He had been on the run since Djindjic’s assassination.
