Djindjic murder suspect arrested
2003-03-25
Serbian police have arrested a senior special police officer on suspicion of assassinating Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic. Mr Djindjic's successor as prime minister, Zoran Zivkovic, said the man was a deputy commander of the Unit for Special Operations (JSO), Zvezdan Jovanovic, aged 38. "Police have identified the person who, there are good grounds to suspect, fired at late Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic," he told a news conference. "He was arrested yesterday and has been detained for further investigation."
Just hours after the killing, Serbian authorities blamed a criminal gang led by a former JSO commander Milorad Lukovic. Mr Zivkovic said the current JSO commander, Dusan Maricic, had been removed from his position and detained for further investigation. He also said police had found a German-made Heckler Koch G3 sniper rifle, which they believe to be the murder weapon.

He ratted on Zvez. Pliers and blowtorches will do that.
