27 years since the "Panda" case, the crime committed by Serbia to shift the blame to Albanians

Today marks 27 years since six young Serbs were killed in a plot orchestrated by Serbia in a small bar in Peja known as "Panda".

In this scenario orchestrated by Serbia to blame the Albanians, Ivan Radević (25), Ivan Obradović (14), Vukota Gvozdenović (16), Dragan Trifović (17) were killed in the "Panda" bar, while Svetislav Ristić (18) and Zoran Stanojević (17) died from their wounds in the hospital.

Two unknown persons had entered armed and opened fire in the crime of December 14, 1998, for which the blame was placed on five young Albanians from Peja. The latter were convicted of the criminal offense of hostile activity. They were released a month after the start of their sentence, with the intervention of the Red Cross, but they did not escape torture in Serbian prisons.

The media outlet "M portal" from Montenegro had reported that the perpetrators of the murder in the "Panda" case also committed the massacre in the Dubrava prison. Participants in both criminal acts include the names of Sinisha Petrić, who is the leader of the "Zenica" clan, and the leader of the "Shkalar" clan, Radomir "Boban" Bačović.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić had stated years earlier that this crime was not committed by Albanians as had been claimed for years. Serbia still continues to cover up the crime committed 27 years later.
