The Constitutional Court in Pristina has convicted and sentenced Milorad Djokovic for war crimes against the civilian population to 10 years in prison.
The trial was announced at the Special Department, by the trial panel led by Judge Donika Shala-Abdyli.
According to the Special Prosecutor’s Act, Djokovici charged that during the years 1998, in Ozdrim and villages around Peja, in co-operation with Serbian military, police and paramilitary forces, had participated in murder, torture, arrests, mistreatment and expulsion of Albanian civilians.
The Acropolis describes the May 7th 1999 operation, when Serb forces surrounded Ozdrim and attacked him from three directions. According to the prosecution, six Albanian civilians had been killed during this operation, while three injured persons were originally sent to the Peja Hospital and were then executed and buried in Lutoglava.
The prosecution’s record describes the killing of five other people whose bodies were not found and found on the list of missing persons.
Also, according to the indictment, about 40 people were arrested and held for three days in inhumane conditions in a garage known as the Shemité Square, near the police substation in Ozdrim.
The prosecution claimed that the detainees had been deprived of food and drinking water and had been tortured. After three days, 12 of them had been released, while the other 28 had moved to Pec and later to Leskovci Prison in Serbia.
Djokovicqi, known by the nickname “Micci,” was declared innocent during the process, while the defence had rejected his involvement in events described by the Prosecutor.
The trial was re-opened on July 27th, 2026, on the day when the indictment was initially expected, to complete the procedure concerning a statement by witness Nurije Krasniqi.
