PRISTINA, Serbia – Head of Serbia’s Office for Kosovo Marko Djuric was booed on the streets of Pristina on Monday, as he was strong-armed by the Specialised Operational Unit of Kosovan police en route to a detention facility.
Djuric was transferred to the capital city after being arrested in Kosovska Mitrovica, where he was scheduled to make an appearance at a local Serb event.
Prior to that, Djuric and three other Serbian officials were refused entry into Kosovo at the Jarinje crossing in northern Kosovo.
