According to Bozidar Sarkovic, the president of the temporary authorities in Klina, Albanians blocked the entrance to the church from all sides, so around 30 Serbs couldn't enter the churchyard and share the festival bread.

- Since we had no other choice, and with fear for our safety, they went to the police station in Klina, and they sent a special unit to hopefully disperse the gathered Albanians and to allow us to mark the village's Patron saint, although all 250 Serbs were banished from the village in 1999 - the president Sarkovic said, while he mentions that Albanians had no reason to prevent them from celebrating the religious holidays, especially since the Serbs don't threaten them at all.

The intention of Albanians, according to the expelled Serbs, is to prevent them in their intention to return to their homesteads, especially since they have been using their properties for 19 years. The only Serb that remains in the village Petric near Klina is grandma Kata Grujic who is constantly robbed by thieves, every day.
