UNSOLVED GORAZDEVAC MURDERS SPUR ALBANIAN VIOLENCE - KOSOVO SERB BODY CHIEF
BBC Monitoring - August 14, 2004

Belgrade, 13 August: The head of the Kosovo-Metohija Coordination Centre, Nebojsa Covic, has said it is regrettable that to this day Kfor (NATO-led Kosovo Force) and UNMIK (UN Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo) have not found the perpetrators of the murders of two and wounding of four children in Gorazdevac (on 13 August 2003) and by this "a message is being sent to Serbs to question whether they should even think about taking part in elections in Kosovo-Metohija."

"It is regrettable that the murders have not been solved, along with many others, as this encourages (ethnic) Albanian extremists and terrorists to continue with their violence against and expelling of Serbs," Covic told journalists in Belgrade.

According to him, the message to Serbs in Kosovo-Metohija is that there is no possibility of the multiethnic existence which has been talked about.
