Cedomir Stojkovic, a lawyer from Belgrade, spoke out on the social network X following the news of the death of the notorious Chetnik vojvoda and commander of the paramilitary formation “Novo Sarajevo Chetnik Detachment,” Slavko Aleksic.
In his post on X, Stojković claims that Aleksic’s death is suspicious and that it was the work of the Serbian secret service, namely the Security Intelligence Agency (BIA).
“I strongly believe that the death of Slavko Aleksic, a member of the Serbian Radical Party with the title of ‘vojvoda,’ a party whose secretary general was Aleksandar Vucic, who before that was a volunteer in his unit, occurred as a result of the actions of Serbia’s secret service. This death is directly connected to the growing facts about the organization of the ‘Sarajevo sniper safari’ and the logistics of that organization,” Stojkovic claims.
In the remainder of his post, Stojkovic presented several facts which, according to his view of the situation, support his claim, adding that the BIA had previously carried out similar actions when this agency was headed by Jovica Stanisic.
“On November 29th, Slavko Aleksic gave an interview to the regime television station Informer TV, and his health condition sounded completely fine. Aleksandar Vucic was a member of Slavko Aleksic’s unit during one part of the ‘Sniper Safari,’ and during another part, he was the secretary general of the Serbian Radical Party, in which Aleksic was a vojvoda. A captured volunteer of the Serbian Radical Party during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) testified that on the bus from Belgrade to Sarajevo (Pale), there were also Italian nationals who were heading to the ‘Sniper Safari.’ Those buses were organized by the Serbian Radical Party, whose secretary general (and thus the party’s chief operative) was Aleksandar Vucic. Aleksic’s testimony would have been invaluable, above all in the part concerning the organization of the logistics of those volunteers and the arrival of foreign nationals,” Stojkovic wrote.
He also added that he “personally believes” that Aleksic was transferred to Belgrade several days ago for a “psychological assessment of whether, during potential testimony, he might accidentally put forward compromising claims.”
“The BIA headquarters building is located only three hundred meters from the building of the Military Medical Academy, where Aleksic was allegedly a few days ago. Very convenient for concealing the actual arrival,” he added.
He also mentioned the increasingly strong ties between the current authorities of Russia and Serbia, precisely in this context.
“In an era of ever-stronger rapprochement between the Kremlin and the regime in Belgrade, it should be borne in mind that this sophisticated recipe for eliminating sensitive individuals has primarily been used by Russia, continuously for many years (for example, the case of Sergei Skripal). It seems obvious that techniques in Serbia have also been upgraded through such cooperation, because a bullet to the back of the head and burial in lime (Ivan Stambolic) or a bullet to the chest (Zoran Djindjic) nevertheless raise more questions,” Stojkovic says.
At the end, he added that it is difficult to believe that Aleksic’s death was accidental, especially at this moment.
“When, at the moment of uncovering a crime, the commander of the suspected paramilitary unit (Aleksic) ‘dies,’ whose volunteer was the president of the state (Vucic), there are no coincidences in that. It is more likely that you win the lottery jackpot than that such a death occurs at such a sensitive moment purely by chance,” lawyer Cedomir Stojkovic stated at the end of his post, Klix.ba writes.
