Beaten protesters on attempted murder charges

POZAREVAC, Wednesday -
 Three members of Otpor were arrested last night after
friends of Marko Milosevic, the son the Yugoslav president, beat them
severely. One, Momcilo Veljkovic, is now in Belgrade prison, while another,
Radojko Lukovic, was transferred to Belgrade Emergency centre with serious
head injuries. Otpor stated that the three were attacked when they tried to
prevent Zoran Ivanovic and Milos Lazic from blackmailing another Otpor
member, Dragan Milovanovic, into joining the Socialist Party of Serbia
Milovanovic told B292 that Ivanovic, known locally as "Rolex" had harassed
him constantly in recent days

A lawyer for one of the arrested Otpor activists said today that the
Pozarevac district prosecutor had still not been notified of the incident.

The Pozarevac branch of the Yugoslav United Left today filed charges under
the Public Information Act against Belgrade broadcaster Studio B and its
director, Dragan Kojadinovic. The charges allege that Studio B published
untrue information by reporting that a physical conflict occurred between
Otpor activists and security personnel at the Madona discotheque. "It is a
lie that three persons were severely injured," said a statement from the
party.
