Any more details on this ?
Was this a politically motivated or just a random criminal act?
Has any one been arrested?

Okay, i just read an article on it. Aparently the poor man had his throat cut.
How is it that nobody gets arrested for such a thing?, is it because he was a serb?

i guess they have to catch the sick murderer. Saw on TV police is highly present.
Pupovac made this murder very dramatic on TV,but still no motive is known.
All on the show where was discussed why HDZ doesnt want to cooperate with SDSS in Knin and on state level they are in coalition

Well i hope they get the person/people who did it but i wont be surprised if nobody is convicted but we shall see.
In terms of HDZ and SDSS, i understand that HDZ needs the coalition with HSP more than that of SDSS. The razor thin majority of HDZ means they need as much help as possible in certain municipalities and this is why HDZ need HSP.
Its a sad position to be in, a coalition with HSP will mean an even greater eurosceptic position for HDZ and the fact that they are not in a coalition with SDSS in Knin is also damaging for the image of Croatia in the eyes of Europe.

Hey it does not have to be that he was a serb.... Maybe he was killing (shooting) Alsdoubles cats.... just kidding.. Could be he pissed some off... Could be his kids.... they want his property... Who the hell knows.... we will all find out soon enough. I don't think they will just forget about something like this.

For once I will agree with ghost writer, just because he was a serb does not mean that was the reason he was killed.
I hate it back in England, when a crime is committed against a black or Asian person and automatically it is assumed that it is a racially motivated crime.
When any ethnicity makes up a certain section of a population, the likelihood is that they will suffer a certain percentage of that countries crime.

Shocking thing in Knin was that the SDSS picked up the remnants of the HNS and SDP votes, not to mention the disillusioned HDZ group, it's beginning to mirror Northern Ireland, with the fringe groups moving into power, but with SDSS they have a number of strong local reps and have been doing a lot of good work for the community. Our good Mayor, and his relative/Deputy, have a lot to lose if they are out, like protection. They were involved in a couple of dodgy deals that a certain rep, Petar Pasic, had the temerity to call them out on. I can't complain about them too much, as they've always been decent to me, but they've been allowing too much to slide by without leadership.
