The Serbian Ministry of Interior (MUP) issued a statement on August 2 detailing the arrest of an individual at the Horgosh border crossing with Hungary. The arrested person, identified only by the initials M.M. and born in 1981, was detained on suspicion of committing a war crime against the civilian population.
The official announcement indicated that the suspect is alleged to have committed these crimes against two individuals, identified as T.S. and S.S., during an incident that occurred on April 26, 1999, in the village of Kllobukar, Kosovo. While the Ministry provided details regarding the charges and the location of the arrest, the serbian MPB did not disclose the individual’s full name or citizenship status.
According to the authorities, the apprehension was a coordinated effort involving multiple specialized units. Personnel from the Service for the Discovery of War Crimes, in cooperation with the Service for Combating Terrorism and the Border Police, conducted the arrest at the international border point. The statement confirms the ongoing involvement of serbian law enforcement agencies in monitoring and addressing allegations of wartime misconduct.
The action underscores the operational capacity of the Ministry of Interior to pursue investigations related to past conflicts through international cooperation at key border crossings. The details provided by the MUP focus specifically on the nature of the alleged war crimes and the operational framework used for the detention.
