Gracanica Health Center Director Radmila Trajkovic said that the ambulance team, once it finally arrived, was not able to save the man's life. “His daughter came to our health institution upset, saying that her father was in a very serious condition and that he had been unable to call the ambulance all night. By the way, he was suffering from angina, he had cerebral infarction earlier and he was in a serious chronic condition, but on September 27 his condition acutely worsened,” she said. “Our team then went to the scene where they found the patient in a life threatening condition. In other words, we were only able to go there on September 28 somewhere around 17:00, when his daughter found him, and give him medical attention. Our ambulance team unfortunately did not succeed, he fell into a coma yesterday and unfortunately died,” Trajkovic xplained. Pristina authorities took to destroying Telekom Srbija base stations south of the Ibar River this week, claiming that the company did not have the license to operate in Kosovo.
