SRNA - January 16, 2004

Bar, 16 January: A group of Albanian young men harassed Ljubica Nedovic, a 37-year-old (Serb) refugee from Kosovo living in a Sutomore refugee camp, in Bar (coastal town in Montenegro).

A group of 15 people insulted me in Albanian yesterday calling me a "skinja", which is an abusive term for a Kosovo Serb. I tried to run away, but they caught up and threw eggs at me, Nedovic told the press.

According to her, she was rescued by a female taxi driver, who stopped the vehicle and gave her a lift to the centre of Bar, where the case was reported to the police.

The police are searching for the young men who attacked Nedovic.
