BELGRADE - Two paramilitary commanders have been sentenced to 40-year jail sentences for assassinating Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic with a single sniper bullet.
Another nine conspirators received between 30 and 35 years.
The 40-year terms were against Milorad Ulemek, who organised the killing, and Zvezdan Jovanovic, who pulled the trigger on March 12, 2003. They belong to the Zemun Clan, a combination of a now defunct secret police unit and gangsters from the Belgrade suburb of Zemun, who ran drug smuggling operations and were involved in dozens of killings.
