Merges in Dealing with
the Legacy of former
Serbian President
Slobodan Milosevic.

Deceased Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic, who died in captivity in Hague last year standing on trial for War Crimes in a UN War Crimes tribunal, still seem to haunt the Serbian nation.

Recently his grave in the eastern Serbian town of Pozarevac was desecrated in a bizarre incident, when Serbian vampire hunters in accordance with old folklore and tradition wanted to make sure the late president remained dead, and drove a three-foot wooden stake into the grave and through his heart.

The leader of the group Miroslav Milosevic, who by the way has no relations to the former president, gave himself up to police who have launched an investigation.

Milosevic said he and his fellow vampire hunters acted to stop the former dictator returning from the dead to haunt the country, The Register reports.

Slobodan Milosevic's Socialist Party of Serbia in a statement condemned the desecration of the grave.

Slobodan Milosevic's daughter-in-law Milica Gajic on behalf of the family responded to the incident by saying she was shocked, and planned to sue the vampire hunters. She also accused the police of failing to protect the grave properly.

Nothing is left to circumstances it seems, when dealing with the task of getting rid of the nation's troubled past.
