Milosevic brother: Family does not trust UN autopsy 


Borislav Milosevic, the older brother of late ex-Yugoslav leader Slobodan
Milosevic, said today that the family does not trust the UN tribunal to
conduct his autopsy impartially.

“I know that his family is against any autopsy there because they don’t
trust them, just as he didn’t trust the doctors and that tribunal,” the
brother said in a TV interview in Moscow, where he lives.

Borislav said the family has not decided where to bury his brother, who was
found dead in his cell at a UN prison near The Hague, today. The
64-year-old, who was in ill health, appeared to have died of natural causes,
a UN tribunal press officer said in the Netherlands.

When asked if the ex-Serbian president would be buried in his homeland, the
brother said: “I don’t know yet.
It’s his family who will decide.”

But he said Slobodan – branded “the butcher of the Balkans” by the West
after orchestrating a decade of bloodshed during the break-up of his country
- would be remembered differently in Serbia.

“You know, he has a lot of supporters there, a lot of people who respect
him. For them it will be a big blow,” he said.

“I think that his memory will remain etched in history and everything he did
for his country and for his people, resisting separatism and terrorism and
outside interference,” said Borislav, a Moscow-based businessman who was the
Yugoslav ambassador to Russia.
