Serbian police (MUP) officers have discovered a large cache of weapons in an oil tank buried in the village of Konculj, in southern Serbia. Investigative Judge with the Vranje District Court Stanisa Mihajlovic said that 100,000 bullets, a recoilless cannon, three mortars, six RPGs, three machine gun stands and 21 anti-tank mines were recovered from the tank. Weapons found in southern Serbia Mihajlovic said the act is characterized as terrorism, and that weapons and ammunition stashed underground are in a good condition. "The police action is realized by Bujanovac multiethnic police, in keeping with my agreement with [ethnic] Albanian municipal presidents in southern Serbia for the local multiethnic police to be mainly engaged in the case," Interior Minister Ivica Dacic told Tanjug earlier today. Dacic added that he had an opportunity to meet the Albanian leaders in southern Serbia "during the action", as well as with international community representatives. Konculj is close to the administrative line between central Serbia and Kosovo. The village was the stronghold of the so-called Liberation Army of Presevo, Medvedja and Bujanovac – a group of armed ethnic Albanians who fought against Serbia's security forces in the area in late 2000 and early 2001.
