Sretko Kalinic does not want to be extradited to Serbia because he believes he would not be given a fair trial, Croatian media reporte. The Zemun Clan crime group member, nicknamed Zver (beast) for his cruelty, spent the last seven years on the run, and in the meantime received a total of 70 years in jail after being found guilty in trials in absentia, for his role in the assassination of Zoran Djindjic, and 19 other murders. Gangster has no faith in Serbia's justice Judge Vera Polak Presecki questioned Kalinic in Dubrava Prison hospital on Thursday, where he is being treated for wounds believed to have been inflicted to him in Zagreb on June 8 by a fellow former Zemun Clan fugitive, Milos Simovic. Simovic received the same sentences in trials in Serbia, and is now in custody in Belgrade. Serbia has requested Kalinic's extradition for his involvement in the 2003 Djindjic assassination and other criminal acts. Serbian Justice Minister Snezana Malovic expects that Kalinic will be extradited to Serbia within the next month, since he is being held in custody, which usually means that the case will be prioritized, said reports. Malovic noted that Serbia recently and Croatia recently signed an extradition agreement and pointed out that Serbian request for Kalinic's extradition has to go through three judicial authorities - the County Court, which will assess whether the extradition conditions have been fulfilled, the Supreme Court, and the Ministry of Justice. The extradition of Kalinic, who holds Croatian citizenship, was not possible before Croatia adopted changes to its Constitution in late June, after which Serbia and Croatia signed the extradition agreement. If extradited, Kalinic will be the first Croatian citizen to be sent to Serbia based on the agreement.
