We feel the deepest sympathy with you and loathe this horrible crime,” said Nikolic."Please extend the whole of Serbia’s most sincere condolences to the families of the victims who lost their lives to the hands of these criminals. We pray for the victims’ souls on the day of our greatest Christian holiday – (Orthodox) Christmas.
