The director of the Office for Kosovo in the Serbian Government, Petar Petkovic, rejected the claims made by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Kosovo, Xelal Sveçla, that the vice-president of the Serbian List, Millan Radoicic, is in the military hospital in Belgrade.
" Sveçla lied that Millan Radoicic is lying in the military hospital in Belgrade ," Petkovic said in a statement on September 27.
A day earlier, Minister Sveçla during an interview for Euronews Albania stated that Radoicic - who he said was a leader and participant in the attack on the Kosovo Police on September 24 in Banjska in Zveçani - "it is very likely that he is in the hospital in the military hospital in Belgrade".
Radoicic is the vice-president of Lista Serbe, the largest party of Serbs in Kosovo that enjoys the support of official Belgrade.
On September 26, Sveçla released a drone video it said showed an armed Radoicic standing in the monastery in Banjska with a group of armed men wearing military uniforms.
In Serbia, only the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ivica Dacic, has commented on these claims, saying that the video "appears" not to have been recorded on the day when the attack took place in the north of Kosovo.
" I don't have any information whether [Radoicic] is in that video or not, I really don't know ," Dacic told Radio Television of Serbia on September 26.
Kosovo police were attacked by a masked and armed group as law enforcement tried to remove barricades that had been set up on a road in the village of Banjské i Zveçani - one of four municipalities in the north, inhabited by a majority of Serbs.
The armed group then took refuge in the Banjska monastery, from where they clashed with the police throughout Sunday.
A Kosovo policeman and three suspected attackers were killed in the attacks. Currently, four people are under arrest for the attacks in the north. For three of them, the justice authorities have imposed a detention measure of one month.
Kosovo has made Serbia responsible for the attack, while Belgrade officially blames the Kosovo Serbs. The United States and the European Union have strongly condemned the attack and demanded that those responsible face justice./ REL
