BRUTAL ATTACK ON THE SERBIAN ORTHODOX DIOCESE
IN SIBENIK

On Thursday, September 29, 2005 at 9:30 p.m. a large group of people jumped over the fence and entered the courtyard of the seat of the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Dalmatia and, with cries of “Kill the Serb! Hang the Serbs from the willow trees!” broke down the entrance door on the building of the Diocese and destroyed everything it found in front of it: a table, benches, windows, etc.
After a call to police was made from the Diocese, the attackers fled in the meanwhile, and a patrol of the Bishopric of Sibenik-Knin Police Department carried out an on site investigation.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Croatia in Zagreb, as well as the Ambassador of Serbia and Montenegro Mr. Milan Simurdic were promptly advised of this unprecedented event and scandal, and brutal attack and attempt to lynch the staff of the Orthodox Diocese of Dalmatia. The Holy Synod of Bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Belgrade was then also informed.
