Thompson concert scandal: Toilets near alleged grave spark controversy, investigation finds no remains

A controversy erupted days before a highly anticipated concert by Croatian singer Marko Perković Thompson, with organizers accused of placing portable toilets near a sensitive archaeological site. The controversy, framed by the publication as a plot by "communists and journalists," involved allegations that the toilets were situated near a location where Italian anti-fascists allegedly executed Serbian soldiers during World War II.

Marko Skejo, the concert's security commander, addressed the issue with a defiant tone. He stated that the toilets were moved further away and added, "The devils know, brother. Back in that war, our allies, Italian anti-fascists, allegedly shot a group of Chetniks and nobody Radu Končara. I ordered the toilets moved further to the right, and if they find the grave of that Chetnik, they can piss on it freely."

The devils know, brother, and if they find the grave of that Chetnik, they can piss on it freely.

Further investigations, prompted by suspicions from Thompson's team, revealed no human remains in the alleged grave of the Chetnik, identified as Rade. Minister Medved personally called a commission to examine the site. President Ivan Penava, who was on vacation, was called in to excavate the site. After a brief search, Penava found no human remains, much to Minister Medved's surprise. Medved then declared, "No Chetnik Rade was buried here!" The crowd spontaneously responded with chants of "Jasenovac, Jasenovac..."

Separately, the article touches on traffic jams at the border with Montenegro, blaming a Slovenian couple working as customs officers for deliberately slowing down processes to "harass Croats at the border."
