Prizren is still being 'ethnically cleansed' of its non-Albanians, according to the Centre for Peace and Tolerance in this town of the Yugoslav republic of Serbia's U.N.-administered province of Kosovo-Metohija.
The terrorism and chaos have been greatly helped by the German battalion of the international KFor force, who are closing their eyes to ethnic Albanians' daily crimes.
According to the Centre's information, there have been a number of murders in the past two weeks, mostly of Serbs and Goranies, with a fair sprinkling of ethnic Albanians who had stood up for their non-Albanian neighbours.
On Aug. 9, Dragica Jovanovic, aged 76, of Serb nationality, was burned alive in her home, because she had refused to move.
The body of another Serb, Jovan Milovanovic, who had gone missing on July 26, surfaced on Aug. 5 in the nearby village of Landovica.
Another body, that of Selim Gorani, of Gorany nationality, was found at Vrbnica outside Prizren, close to the Albanian border, on Aug. 3.
Bosiljka Racic, aged 55, Serb, was killed in her house, and her body was found in the cellar on Aug. 8.
Lulzim Gashi, ethnic Albanian, was killed on July 29.
The Mircevics, husband and wife, Serbs, were tortured, before the husband was eventually killed, and the wife abducted.
According to one Edita Mula, several ethnic Albanian terrorists raped their compatriot Luleta Gashi on July 31.
Snezana Krstic, Serb, was raped on Aug. 7 in an Albanian home, and then taken away in an unknown direction.
Tatjana Milosevic, Serb, escaped a similar fate on July 30, with the help of her ethnic Albanian neighbours who chased the wound-be rapists away.
Dejan Stojkovic, a Serb from Strpce, had set out to visit his grandparents in Prizren, but never reached them. He disappeared on Aug. 4.
Stanoje Nikolic, a Serb of Prizren, was beaten up, escaped, but was recaptured as he was seeking medical help.
Vidoje Petkovic, Serb, had much the same fate.
Tatjana Nikolic, who had come from the central Serbian city of Krusevac for a visit, was abducted, while her cousins Dragan and Svetlana Karamarkovic were beaten up in their Prizren home.
A triple abduction occurred in broad daylight on Aug. 1. Reshit Tefiku, Sadik Krusha and Elvan Vllaqi, ethnic Albanians all were seized in a Prizren street, while Dragica Stojanovic, Serb, who had been in their company, was brutally beaten up.
Ethnic Turk Gemal Gashi was taken away in an unknown direction on July 30 for refusing to speak Albanian when accosted by a patrol of the ethnic Albanian terrorist Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA).
Three members of the ethnic Albanian family of Ekrem Krasniqi from Malisevo were abducted on Aug. 7, because one of the sons of the family was on the Serbian police force.
Ratko Nikolic and Dejan Stankovic, visitors from the Southeast Serbian city of Nis, have also gone missing.
Children are targeted, too. On Aug. 9, KLA terrorists snatched Samira, aged 6 months, her sister Marijeta (17) and their brother Enver (21), in the presence of their father Luan Kastrati, who could do nothing to save them.
The ethnic Turk families Djengizoglu, Karakoda, Kajmakci, Djimsit, Petla, Durmis and Sila, and the ethnic Albanian families Temaj and Sadiku have been driven out of Prizren in the past two weeks alone for standing up for their neighbours.
Ethnic Albanian terrorists plundered and then torched the building of the Cviljan municipal company earlier in August, deeming its services unnecessary to the town.
As a result of the rampaging of ethnic Albanian terrorist gangs, Prizren is practically 'ethnically pure.'
A handful of ethnic Turks still remain, thanks to the efforts of the Turkish government, since the Turkish KFor battalion guards the ethnic Turk village of Mamusa and central Prizren.
There are about about 430 Serbs still in Prizren, and 30 Serbian families sheltered in the seminary of the Serbian church.
