Petar Petkovic, the director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, reacted with a harsh message:
"The only goal of such arrests is to crimialize Serbs, especially those from the North. And so last night Miljan was publicly accused by the Kosovo police of involvement in 'organized crime', which as soon as today turned out to be completely untrue!
"Will the Kosovo police apologize to Miljan and his family and admit the mistake, just as loudly as they accused him of a crime with no evidence? This scandalous arrest should make everyone wonder - how many other Serbs have been arrested by the Kosovo police unjustly and without evidence, just because they have a Serb name," Petkovic asked.
Namely, Miljan, a former member of the Kosovo police, was arrested at the Jarinje administrative crossing in the presence of his wife and two children for allegedly participating in criminal activities and accepting bribes.
