“We continue to mourn the loss of police officer Afrim Bunjaku during the attack,” the British Embassy in Kosovo said Wednesday, on the second anniversary of the terrorist assault in Banjska, Zveçan.

The embassy, which described the attack on the Kosovo Police as terrible, said that the perpetrators – including Milan Radoičić – have still not been brought to justice.

“We again urge the Serbian authorities to act on this as soon as possible,” the embassy added.

On September 24, 2023, a group of armed Serbs, led by terrorist Milan Radoičić, attacked the Kosovo Police. Sergeant Afrim Bunjaku was killed and others were wounded.

Special forces killed three Serbs, while members of the terrorist group fled toward Serbia through mountain routes.

The group of about 50 people, led by the chief terrorist Milan Radoičić – sanctioned by the United States and wanted by local institutions for involvement in murder – had positioned themselves in and around the Banjska Monastery, wearing military uniforms.

Nearly a year after the attack, on September 11, the Special Prosecution filed an indictment, with Radoičić among the main defendants as the leader of the group. According to the indictment, they committed the criminal offense of “committing a terrorist act” and the offense of “serious crimes against the constitutional order and security of the Republic of Kosovo.” Some are also accused of financing the group and money laundering.

Serbia has still not extradited the Banjska criminals, despite repeated requests from local authorities and several international allies.

Milan Radoičić was deputy chairman of the Serbian List – the largest Serb party in Kosovo, which is supported by official Belgrade. /KosovaPress
