It is with deep sorrow that the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) must now inform the public that our long-time associate and friend, Attorney Dragoljub Todorović, passed away on May 14th, 2015.
Dragoljub had represented victims and victims’ family members on behalf of the HLC, since the beginning of the war crimes trials in Serbia. He persistently advocated the protection of their rights, thereby offering his contribution to the substantiation of the truth about the kidnapping in Štrpci, the brutal execution of the Bogujevci family in Podujevo, and the crimes committed at Ovčara, Zvornik, Trnovo, and elsewhere. During 1999 and 2000, Dragoljub, together with the HLC’s team of attorneys, defended the Kosovo Albanians unlawfully detained in politically motivated proceedings.
