18/07/2010
PRISTINA, Kosovo -- EULEX will start arresting people involved in organised crime in northern Mitrovica, EULEX deputy chief Roy Reeve said on Friday (July 16th) during an informal discussion on "Security and Perspectives in Northern Kosovo." Reeve added that investigations are under way in two recent incidents in the north. In the first, one person died after a hand grenade was thrown at a Serb demonstration in Mitrovica in the beginning of July, and in the second, Kosovo Serb lawmaker Petar Miletic was shot and wounded. At the discussion, Kosovo Deputy Prime Minister Hajredin Kuqi again urged Serbs to accept Kosovo's independence and not become hostages to instructions coming from Belgrade.
