"A bullet to the head and goodbye forever," a local rebel commander was quoted as saying, and then adding: "Those are murderers, not soldiers, they are people who are heartlessly killing for money." In Belgrade, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said they had no information about Serbian citizens being executed. "We saw this in the newspapers and we are checking it.
