Belgrade, Serbia โ In a developing investigation into a high-profile murder, the wife of the victim, identified as A.N., provided testimony today at the Higher Public Prosecutor's Office. Her statement directly addresses speculation surrounding the victim's alleged connections, particularly refuting any business or personal conflict with Veselin Miliฤ, the former head of the Belgrade police. This clarification is crucial as the investigation seeks to untangle the circumstances leading to the brutal killing.
She testified that her husband had no conflict with the former head of the Belgrade police Veselin Miliฤ, nor did the two have any joint business.
The victim's wife confirmed that Miliฤ did not summon her husband to the restaurant where the incident occurred without security, countering another line of inquiry. Her testimony instead pointed towards a conflict with Saลกa Vukoviฤ, known as Boske, who has since been arrested on suspicion of carrying out the murder. The discovery of a body believed to be A.N. in a barrel near Inฤija, following days of searching, has added a grim dimension to the case.
Miliฤ did not call her husband to come to the restaurant without security.
President Aleksandar Vuฤiฤ has expressed near certainty that the recovered body belongs to the missing Aleksandar Neลกoviฤ, pending DNA confirmation. The Serbian public is closely following this case, which has gripped the nation's attention. N1 Serbia will continue to provide comprehensive coverage as more details emerge from the ongoing investigation and legal proceedings.
Her husband was in conflict with Saลกa Vukoviฤ called Boske, who was arrested on suspicion of killing Neลกoviฤ.
