-Caveat Lector- U.N. Police Officer Arrested By Associated Press January 6, 2002, 12:14 PM EST
PRISTINA, Yugoslavia -- A U.N. police officer has been arrested on suspicion he shot to death an ethnic Albanian woman, U.N. police said Sunday. They refused to discuss what the motive might have been. Police were called to the officer's apartment in Pec, about 55 miles west of the provincial capital of Pristina, Saturday after people nearby heard shots, police spokesman Derek Chappell said. Police found a 23-year-old ethnic Albanian woman with serious injuries. The 32-year-old police officer had bullet wounds in his arm and hand. Both were taken to a hospital, where the woman died. The woman, whose identity was not released, worked as a translator for U.N. police, Chappell said. Police were still investigating the shooting but believed no others were involved, Chappell said. He refused to comment on a motive or give the officer's identity or nationality. Kosovo, a Yugoslav province, has been administered by the United Nations since a 78-day air war in June 1999 forced an end to former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's campaign of repression against the ethnic Albanian majority. The U.N. police force in Kosovo includes 4,450 international police officers.

It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar." - Julius Caesar <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
