Famous Serbian restaurateur arrested in Sevastopol
Serbian citizen Slavish Karabashevich, a famous restaurateur, was taken into custody by decision of the Leninsky District Court of Sevastopol.
This was reported by the press service of the court, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The court found that on December 22, 2017, a verdict was passed against Karabašević by the Main Court of Požarevac, which found the defendant guilty of committing murder. The verdict came into force.
The restaurateur is on the international wanted list through Interpol.
The Serbian wife Lyubov told Sevastopol journalists that an application to Interpol to search for Slavish was filed because “from 1991 to 1999 he fought in Kosovo on the side of the Serbian Krajina.”
The woman apparently confuses something, since the Serbian Krajina is a part of Croatia that was brutally “cleansed” of Serbian resistance forces in 1995. The Kosovo War began in 1998: the Serbian army fought against Albanian separatists.
According to the publication "Notes", Karabashevich was arrested for the first time in 2002 and kept in prison for three years - until April 2005. He was accused of murder, but the district court found no evidence of the crime charged against him, and the restaurateur was released.
The restaurateur himself claims that he was charged with war crimes for refusing to write a denunciation of “Serbian heroes.”
In 2007, Karabashevich moved to Ukraine, the homeland of his second wife, first to Dnepropetrovsk, then to Sevastopol. Law enforcement officers informed him that he was wanted by Interpol back in May, when a traffic police patrol stopped the car and checked his documents.
Karabashevich submitted an application for political asylum to Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to his wife, he wants to renounce Serbian citizenship.
