These assassinations, which were done by professionals, introduced us to a new level of the underground, most of the people never knew existed.

"The season" of murders was opened by the attacker on Petar Arsic (38). The victim is known to the police as a perpetrator of multiple thefts, and that is why he was sentenced twice, and he was murdered in front of the cafe "3k" on Vidikovac on February 28th.

MOST OF THE MURDERERS ARE UNKNOWN
The police are still searching for the man who murdered Dragoje Trisic on March 21st in Trgovacka street in Zarkovo. He went to visit his mother and gravely sick brother, and he went there almost every day. He was assassinated at the moment when he was approaching the building entrance.
Trsic held few bars and taverns in the capital, so it can pre presumed that the motive behind this murder could be the unsolved business around these objects. Also, he has been sentenced several times for drug trafficking, so the police are investigating his role in the drug market.
The attacker waited for him in the passage between two buildings and shot 4 rounds in his direction, and two of them him in the chest, and two in the stomach. He was dead on sight, and the murderer started walking and then ran away towards the center of Zarkovo.
MOST OF THE AFFAIRS BEFORE THE MURDER WERE CAUSED BY LUKA RADULOVIC
Luka Radulovic was shot in the night between 17th and 18th of April, who is known to the public when he cut the president line of vehicles last year on Topcider. He was arrested one month later in one betting shop under the suspicion that he traded with narcotics.
Radulovic was free at the moment of murder since he made an agreement with Special Prosecutor's Office in March where he admits his guilt for drugs.
According to the unofficial information, the murder of Radulovic was allegedly ordered by a criminal group from Montenegro, and the motive is dept and snitching.
The attacker shot Radulovic in the stomach, and the conflict happened in the tavern "Under the Bridge". He succumbed to injuries after reanimation.
MURDER IN FRONT OF THE COURT IN NEW BELGRADE
Butcher, Devil, Boris, Gorgie, Gorg, or simply Djordje Darmanovic. The murder of this Serbian spy from South Africa, who was murdered on May 6th in New Belgrade, caused the most controversy.
Several rounds were shot to Darmanovic on the parking near the seat of First Basic Prosecution Court in New Belgrade and it is a professional murder due to the way he was assassinated - the attacker shot 2 rounds to the victim's head which states that there weren't supposed to be any kind of warning, but the one who ordered it asked for a certain kill of Darmanovic.
He had a helper on a motorcycle to escape between the New Belgrade blocks and parks more easily. Serbian police investigate if he comes from the Serbian underground or if they were "imported" from some other country.
He is known under many nicknames, and the ones he cooperated with, associates and criminal underground, as well as intelligence circles, knew him as a "Butcher" or "Devil" by the savage acts he did.
RAD FANS ARE THE TARGETS THIS YEAR
Another conflict between fan groups with the deadly outcome happened on Cukarica slope. Ognjen Zanic (26) was murdered late in the evening on May 24th, in the park of the residential building, when he was shot in the stomach with 3 bullets. Aleksa Vasiljevic (25) and Dejan Rutalj (22) from Belgrade were soon arrested for murder, but they defended themselves with silence at the hearing in Higher Prosecution Court. They were both sent to three months of detention after that.
As it was confirmed during the investigation, all three of them were FC Rad fans. However, prior to the crime, Ognjen beat Alexa for going to the Partizan group.
LUKA BOJOVIC IS PREPARING THE REVENGE
Only four days later, on May 28th, in a shooting that happened in Visnjicka street on Karaburma, Dragoslav Miloradovic (44), was shot in front of his car-wash.
It was a criminal conflict, and as it was found out quickly, Dragoslav had a record in the police for being a member of Bojovic group.
The murdered shot multiple rounds at his victim and he escaped with a motorcycle. The police starter pursuing them and they proclaimed the operation "Vihor" on the entire territory of the city.
Miloradovic is known to the police from before, he was criminally charged for weapons and forgery of documents, and he was dealing with drugs.
Although these murders are traditionally compared to the conflicts in the nineties, when the state top allowed criminals to "clean" themselves out, this situation is different because you could know which clan is fighting by the location.
There are no clan leaders now, but there are leaders of fan groups. And where is the end of them and will they write about them in 20 years, like Knele, Giska and the crew? Hardly. Not because these are legends and meritorious citizens, because they lived in a time where it was easy to make a hero out of yourself, the idol of the youth.
This is where the godfather of Luka Bojovic was murdered:
