On the 6th of May 2020 at 11:30 hrs the duty officer of the UNMIK police sta­tion number 5 received an anonymous phone call that a bomb would be placed on the railroad between the 6th and 7th of May. The caller did not reveal his identity and put the receiver back on the phone. The duty officer immediately brought this infor­mation to the knowledge of the UNMIK Station Commander.
The Station Commander decided to hold a meeting with his deputy and staff leaders. The meeting started on the 6th of May at 12:45 hrs. The members of the meeting agreed, that the railroad stretches in the area of their responsibility up to 85 kilometers with 4 villages, 5 train stations, and 9 bridges. 3 Bridges were over mo­torway and 6 over rivers. The station commander had 55 police officers at the police station and knew that this strength was not enough to provide security to the rail road, to the train, passengers and constructions on this railroad. At 14:00 hrs the Station Commander called Regional commander and informed him about his concerns. The Regional Commander declared an emergency situation in the region from 15:00 hrs on 6th of May until 09:00 hrs on the 8th of May 2020. On the 6th, 7th and morning 8th of May the police were extremely busy checking the railroad, railway stations and
113
bridges. On the 8th of May 2003 at 09:00 hrs when all police units reported, that no bomb threat was observed the emergency situation was called off.
On the 10th of May at 02:35 hrs a man rushed into the police station number 5. He appeared to be a 47 year old, grey haired, slim build taxi driver, license plates number 359 KS 476 and stated, that at 02:00 he saw, that the bridge over motorway at grid reference 896-496 was blown up. The duty officer called the railway station to stop the passenger train from going towards the bridge. But it was too late and the train was already on its way. The duty officer immediately sent a police car with po­lice patrol to stop the train. There was one railroad crossing 5 km before the bridge at grid 873-485. The police patrol was on time and managed to stop the train at 03:10 hrs. Neither passengers, nor engineers of the train were injured.
The UNMIK Station Commander with two police patrol teams, forensic group and the bomb-clearing unit arrived to the blown bridge at 03:45 hrs. The bomb­clearing unit found large blood spots on the bridge and stated, that the criminals must have been severely injured by the explosion. The police patrols made a search around the area of the bridge and found two dead mail bodies lying 15 meters from the bridge in the bushes. They were dressed in camouflage, both about 3035 years old, 175180 cm tall, with short black hair. No documents were found. The bodies were taken to the morgue for postmortem examination. The fingerprints made by the fo­rensic helped to identify two criminals, which were under the federal search since
1999. The case is under investigation.

On Friday the 9th of May 2003, at 20:00 hrs, an incident was reported to Police Station # 5 of a person being severely beaten. The caller witness stated that a beating incident had just occurred at the food store «Best Price», which was located at Main Street 25, grid reference 193-168. Immediately, a police patrol was dispatched to the scene of the incident. On arrival at the scene of the incident at 20:15 hours the offic­ers observed, that the 42-year-old male food storeowner, had been very badly beaten on his face. Due to the very serious condition of the store owner's injuries the officers decided to immediately transport the victim by ambulance to the local hospital for treatment.
The 37-year-old female witness to the incident said she and the storeowner had been friends for the last 3 years. At 19:50 hrs, while she was six meters away from the incident hiding behind a bread display, she observed the owner of the store and the offender, a male that was about thirty years of age, 175 cm tall, very heavy build, with long black hair and beard, brown leather coat, white shirt and black pants argu­ing loudly. The witness advised that she overheard the offender say to the storeowner that he was late in paying the 900 euros which were due to be paid at the beginning of each month, and that if the money was not paid he would destroy the store by fire. The witness advised that the storeowner said to the offender that he refused to pay any more extortion money to him. The witness then stated that she observed the of­fender remove a small black club from his coat pocket with his right hand and strike the store owner five times in the face with the club while holding him by the neck with his left hand, and then put the club back in his coat pocket.
Further interview of the witness revealed that she was employed as a teacher at the local school, and resident at Airport Street 49, grid reference 836-742. The wit­ness stated that she had never seen the offender in the store before the incident hap­pened. The witness further stated to the officers that the offender, after having beaten the storeowner, drove away at a very high speed from the store North on Main Street, in a large black, four door vehicle license #639 KS 385. The witness further advised that as the offender was leaving the store she noticed the offender to have blood stains on his white shirt and on his brown leather coat.
The Officers proceeded to the local hospital to interview the victim of the beat­ing to obtain further information about the identity of the offender. Upon arrival at the local hospital the Officers were advised by the attending doctor that the victim was in a coma condition and unable to speak with them. The doctor told the Officers that he would telephone them at Police Station # 5, as soon as the victim became con-
120
