Serbian Opposition Leader Vuk Draskovic Survives Assassination Attempt

HeadlineJun 16, 2000

This news from Yugoslavia: An unidentified gunman shot and wounded Serbian opposition leader Vuk Draskovic in the Yugoslav Republic of Montenegro. A statement from his Serbian Renewal Movement in Belgrade called it an assassination attempt. Several volleys were reportedly fire through the window of his house. The statement goes on to say Draskovic was hit by two bullets. He was treated in a hospital and later discharged from the hospital at his own request. Draskovic’s shooting follows a string of mysterious assassinations of officials and underworld figures in Belgrade. Earlier this month, the security adviser to Montenegro’s pro-Western president was also gunned down.
