The Appellate Court in Belgrade has definitively sentenced Uroš Blažić to a prison term of 20 years for killing nine people and wounding 12 others in villages near Mladenovac on May 4, 2023.
By the same verdict, his father, Radiša Blažić, was also definitively sentenced to 20 years in prison for committing criminal acts of unauthorized production, possession, and trafficking of weapons and explosive materials, and a grave offense against general security.
The second-instance court rejected the appeals of the defendants’ lawyers as unfounded and affirmed the first-instance verdict, as published on the court’s website, Tanjug reports.
Uroš Blažić was found guilty of shooting at three locations on the evening of May 4, 2023, killing a total of nine and wounding 12 people. In Mali Orašje, Marko Mitrović died on the spot from five injuries, while Nemanja Stevanović, Lazar Milovanović, Petar Mitrović, and minors Nikola Milić and Aleksandar Milovanović later died from their injuries in the hospital. Blažić wounded several people, and in Dubona, he killed Milan Panić, Kristina Panić, and Dalibor Todorović.
He then drove away from the scene in his vehicle, unauthorizedly entered a vehicle parked in a house’s yard, and drove to a toll booth, where he entered a taxi containing Jelena Aljdinović and driver Dragoslav Antonović. Aljdinović told him she was pregnant, and they drove her to her destination, while he continuously threatened the driver with a bomb and ordered him to drive him to the village of Vinjište near Kragujevac, where he was arrested.
