Businesspeople from northern Kosovska Mitrovica have ended blockade of the town’s main bridge. They protested against the arrest of their colleague Jevrem Pantelic. Serbs end protest in K. Mitrovica Kosovo police (KPS) and EULEX forces were deployed to the bridge and the protest went without any incidents. Kosovska Mitrovica Municipal President Krstimir Pantic has stated that the citizens blocked the bridge in order to express their dissatisfaction with more frequent intrusion of Kosovo police special unit in northern Kosovo. He pointed out that a Thursday incident, when the special unit members tried to seize a Serbian woman’s license plates by force, threatening her at gunpoint, was a serious incident and an additional cause for today’s rally. Ribarice - Kosovska Mitrovica road has been blocked since Thursday following Pantelic’s arrest, so the traffic is being redirected to alternative routes. Pantelic was arrested by EULEX three days ago for not paying excise taxes and customs duties to Kosovo. Serbs from that part of Kosovo point out that his arrest represents a pressure on the Serbian community “to comply with illegal Kosovo laws in this part”, adding that their decision not to pay taxes to the authorities they do not recognize does not give EULEX the right to arrest people.
