Two Serbs were banned from entering Kosovo for three years for allegedly organizing riots in the north

The Basic Court in Pristina had sentenced Sinisa Jevtic and Ivan Sekulic, two Serbs who had been arrested for allegedly organizing riots in the north of Kosovo at the end of May, to six months in prison and an additional sentence in the form of a ban on entering Kosovo, lawyer Milos Delevic confirmed for Kosovo Online. The prison sentence was replaced by a fine.

In addition to being sentenced to six months in prison, Jevtic and Sekulic also received an additional sentence in the form of a three-year ban on entering Kosovo. They were arrested at the Jarinje crossing at the end of May.

"Sinisa Jevtic was sentenced to six months in prison today. At the suggestion of the defense, his prison sentence was replaced by a fine in the amount of 5,700 euros. The family collected the money, today I will pay the fine as his defense attorney and I expect that he will be released within the day," Sinisa Jevtic's defense attorney Milos Delevic told Kosovo Online.

Jevtic and Sekulic are charged with the crimes of "participating in a protest" and "hooliganism", and their names were on Kurti's list of persons he accused of organizing riots in the north.

According to Kurti, Jevtic and Sekulic are also a part of the "Delije" fan group.
