It is today 25 years since the abduction of a group of Serb miners in Kosovo, who were forcibly taken by Albanian terrorists from the grounds of the Belacevac coal mine of the Obilic Thermal Power Plant.

"That was the beginning of a campaign of mass crimes and terror organized by Albanian terrorists in Kosovo and Metohija against the civilian, Serb population, and this very crime shows the true nature and true goals of what they in Pristina call the struggle for liberation," the Office for Kosovo and Metohija recalled in a statement, adding:

"Today, when the terrorist police in Kosovo, in the style of the KLA (Albanian, "UCK" - "Kosovo Liberation Army") is arresting and abducting innocent Serbs and beating Serb children every day, it is clear that this struggle is nothing more than an attempt to completely ethnically cleanse our southern province, by abusing and terrorizing the non-Albanian population.

For a quarter of a century, the perpetrators of the crime committed against the Belacevac miners have not been found and brought to justice, and none of the representatives of international organizations and provisional institutions in Kosovo and Metohija have even tried to offer answers about the fate of the Serb miners and many other of our fellow Serbs who died. That best speaks to the achievements of the so-called international justice in Kosovo and Metohija.

Serbia, the Serb people and the families of the victims, with grief and respect will continue to cherish the memory of the Serb victims and to seek justice for the crime when the miners from the Belacevac mine were killed while doing their jobs," the Office said in a statement.

On this day 25 years ago, in the early hours of the morning, miners Dusan Adjancic, Pera Adjancic, Zoran Adjancic, Mirko Buha, Dragan Vukmirovic, Filip Gojkovic, Miroslav Trifunovic, Srboljub Savic and Bozidar Lempic were abducted from their workplace, just for being Serbs.
