They kicked me with a knee, they shouted "Allahu Akbar", they reached for the knives and they took selfies: Djuric, in bandages, described the torture by Albanians (PHOTO) (VIDEO)

The head of the Office for Kosovo and Metohia appeared today with bandages over his hands after the brutal arrest in Kosovska Mitrovica

Director of the Kosovo and Metohija (KiM) office Marko Djuric addressed the public in the Presidency of Serbia, after meeting the president Aleksandar Vucic and the representatives of the Serbian List. Djuric was arrested yesterday at the gathering of inner dialogue, and then he was transported with handcuffs to Pristina, where he was investigated and then expelled to central Serbia. He was provided with medical assistance in Kursumlija, and then in Belgrade. The presidency of Serbian list adopted the initiative to leave the government in Pristina, and the president of that list Goran Rakic said today that the final decision on participation in Kosovo government will be made after consultations with Vucic.

Djuric said at the very beginning that the "Albanian separatists in Pristina, with the support from the west, attacked our people in the North of KiM in a brutal and violent way with a clear goal - to take over the north of KiM with violence and terror with an armed phalanx".

- Those aren't police officers for me, that is a furious terrorist gang. They sent them to the barehanded and unarmed people. That is a shame of them, and of those who agreed on this - he said.

- Yesterday, Albanian separatists in Pristina, with the obvious and unequivocal support of those who recognized the unilaterally declared independence of KiM, brutally and violently attacked our people in the north of Kosovska Mitrovica with the absolutely clear aim of violence, terror, intimidation, with a phalanx armed to the teeth to occupy and to take over the north of Kosovo and Metohija - Djuric said at the conference for media after the meeting with the representatives of Serbs from Kosovo with the president of Serbia.

He also said that he is proud of the citizens of Kosovska Mitrovica who, "barehanded, in a peaceful and Gandhian manner, opposed them and they didn't give up from the fight for their homes".

- It is important that our and the international public are aware of what was happening exactly - Djuric said and continued: We have scheduled yesterday's roundtable meeting to make a compromise calmly, in accordance with all agreements and we duly informed everybody in Kosovo, and it is a notorious lie that they weren't informed.

He repeated that the announcement was sent from Serbia 70 hours ago, which was repeated several times.

- I am saying this for you to see the extent of lies - Djuric adds.

Djuric said that the members of the Kosovo police weren't officials but the "armed phalanx" and he said that he was "dragged like a dog", they pulled his tie on the street, trying to humiliate him, just like Serbia and Serbian people.

- They placed me in one of the transporters, they tried to frighten me, they jammed the rifle in my stomach, one of them took out a knife and threatened me, they took selfies together. They sang on their way to Pristina, they shouted "Allahu Akbar". After that they took me through the streets and to a basement - Djuric said.

As he said, he has pains, but he is feeling alright.

- If it weren't for the call from Belgrade, the violence and terror over Serbs would continue - Djuric said, but he didn't say what was that call was about.

He repeated that he was proud of Serbs, brave men, and women who didn't, and who will never bow down.

- Serbs on Kim and Serbia will continue to fight for their historical rights - Djuric said.

He said that he was in Brussels on Friday with Aleksandar Vucic and he smiled at one moment because he found something funny what the Albanian side said because it seemed like complete nonsense.

- President Vucic didn't allow it and he stopped that way of addressing. But, it was clear in what direction the things are heading - to ruin the dialogue and to undermine the chances to reach for a compromise - he said.

- No one will ever repeat "Flash" or "Storm" on KiM, and that refers to the Serbs in the north of KiM, as well as on Serbs in enclaves - Djuric said and added: We are no afraid and the public should know that.

- We will work to strengthen our structures on KiM. And those who did this would like to see Serbs as a decor in their fake governments, those who don't have the power to solve a single problem - mentioned the director of the office for KiM.

The director of the KiM office, Marko Djuric, said that none of the representatives of the international community asked him what happened or what is the situation on KiM after all that has happened, but he did ask who is asking and contacts him because that happened with the explicit consent of the part of international community.

- Who should contact me, Mitrovica was full of them yesterday, so many foreign intelligence services, so many soldiers of this or that country, members of this or that mission - Djuric said.

He said that they knew very well what was preparing:

- You think that they care.

He said that he will keep going to KiM, that he will go as long as he can walk, even if he can't anymore.

- It is not about me, it is about the fact that someone tried to break our spirit, to stop our fight - Djuric said.
