The Basic Court of Pristina issued on Wednesday summons for Milan Radojcic and 10 other suspects, in connection with the erection of barricades in the Serb-majority north of Kosovo in 2022.

Radojcic and 50 other suspects are being investigated after allegedly undermining Kosovo's constitutional order and taking part in protests and the erection of barricades in the north of the country in 2022.

"The Basic Court in Pristina has approved the request of the Special Prosecution, respectively the prosecutor of the case for the issuance of the local and international letter of alignment against Milan Radojcic. The arrest warrant was issued as part of the investigative actions that are being undertaken in the case of the installation of barricades in the four northern municipalities in 2022", the spokesperson of the Special Prosecutor's Office, Arbnora Luta, told the media.

Radojcic, who is already wanted in Kosovo for war crimes and the Banjska attack, was vice-president of Lista Srpska, the largest Serb party in Kosovo, at the time he is suspected of committing the crime in 2022.

The approval of the request of the Special Prosecution of Kosovo to issue arrest warrants for him and others comes on the day when the hearing of the president of Lista Srpska, Zlatan Ellek, before the Special Prosecution in Pristina was postponed, as his lawyer was ill.

Lista Srpska reacted on Wednesday to this decision, saying that "with the expulsion of Serbian policemen born and who have lived for decades in Kosovo, with the announcement of arrest warrants and with the interrogation of dozens of Serbs for the peaceful protests held in 2022, Albin Kurti is swiftly and without concealment implementing a plan for the ethnic cleansing of the Serb people from the territory of Kosovo".

"It is about institutional violence that is exerting unprecedented pressure on honest Serbs, who do not give up their Serbian name and surname, who refuse to be servants of Kurti and who have now become targets just because they are Serbs," Srpska Lista said.

On December 10, 2022, barricades were erected in the north of Kosovo due to the arrest of Dejan Panti?, a former police official, whom Kosovo authorities accused of participating in the attack on the premises of Kosovo's Central Election Commission.

Those barricades were removed on December 29, after the summons of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, and after Pantic was placed under house arrest.

The barricades followed a series of incidents and heightened tensions, after Serbs left Kosovo institutions in the north in early November, 2022, at the initiative of Lista Srpska.

The latter then opposed the decision of the Government of Kosovo to replace Serbian car license plates with license plates of the Republic of Kosovo.
